Abstract

This work comprehensively reviews the Occurrence of Thermotolerant Coliforms in Waters Intended for Human Consumption. The research explores a multifaceted question at the intersection of public health, microbiology, and environmental science, shedding light on the prevalence of thermotolerant coliforms in drinking water sources. This review investigates the various types of thermotolerant coliforms commonly found in water sources intended for human consumption. An extensive literature examination establishes the importance of recognizing these organisms and their potential for water contamination, emphasizing the urgency of practical water quality assessment and monitoring.
