  • Title: [Detection of small amounts of viruses (enteroviruses) in drinking water (author's transl)].
    Author: Beytout D, Charrier F, Laveran H, Monghal M.
    Journal: Ann Microbiol (Paris); 1977; 128(2):255-62. PubMed ID: 197864.
    Abstract:
    A simple detection method of enteroviruses and adenoviruses in drinking water has been performed, using adsorption-elution on to cellulose nitrate membranes. Average of enteroviruses recovering is varying from 23 to 80% when 30 liters of water containing 60 PFU are monitored. Only 10% of adenoviruses are recovered in the same conditions. This method allowed us to detect 12 PFU of enteroviruses in 120 liters of water. Recovering of 1 PFU in 10 liters when examining more than 100 liters is reproducible.
