A METHOD OF DETECTING TOTAL VIABLE ORGANISMS IN WATER BASED ON SOLID-PHASE MICROEXTRACTION AND FLUORESCENT SIGNAL DETECTION

Microorganisms are monitored as a key indicator of water quality. Measurement of “total viable organisms” (TVO, similar to “heterotrophic plate count”, HPC) is used to indicate the general hygiene level of the water, and is often used to assess water treatment. Automated, instrumental TVO detectio...
