T or F
The presence of E.coli shows that there is a feces contamination
True
What are the steps to detect an enteric bacteria?
1- fermentation, gas production and dye colorization
2-EMB and temperature variability (were ecological bacteria can’t grow on hight tempratures)
3-repeat the process to make sure
What do they mean by; O antigen K antigen H antigen Vi
O: for lipopolysaccharides
K: for capsule
H: for flagella
Vi for capsule of salmonella
List the 3 domains where E.coli can be present
