Well Water Test
Why 2 different media?
The use of 2 different media allows for an evaluation process
called Drop Out Plating. The Coliscan media drops out many
general bacteria with the target of the recovery being total Coliform
Bacteria: color coded growth of E.coli being blue, other Coliform
Bacteria pink. The Total Number (TN) of Coliform,
including E.coli, should be counted as 1 organism: one Coliform
bacteria for enumeration purposes. The count of the General Bacteria
culture will be the higher count culture. Subtract the Coliform
count from the General bacteria count and you can approximate
the count of non-Coliform bacteria in your Well Water sample.
