See full text

Phages can be detected as rapid indicators of the hygienic quality of a sample. Both continuous flow methods and devices, single sample methods and devices, of various volumes, can be used. Single samples may be tested by single or multi-step testing methods. Test kits can be provided in easy-to-use formats. Certain phages, such as coliphage, are useful as indicators of fecal contamination.
