- Microbial contamination of drinking water and disease outcomes in developing regions (2004, positive): “…for cholera (Vibrio cholerae) and typhoid fevers (Salmonella typhi and S. paratyphi), is well indexed by the common faecal indicator bacteriumEscherichia coli (E. coli), which is excreted in the faeces of all warm-blooded animals and some reptiles (Edberg et al., 2000; Enriquez et al., 2001).”
- Environmental Escherichia coli: ecology and public health implications—a review (2017, background): “Based on the epidemiological studies done in the 1980s, levels of E. coli in recreational water impacted by known contaminant sources (e.g. sewage) was shown to correlate with incidences of gastrointestinal illnesses (USEPA 1986; Edberg et al. 2000).”
- Modeling Fecal Indicator Bacteria Concentrations in Natural Surface Waters: A Review (2014, background): “…substituted to coliform enumeration as there is evidence from epidemiological studies (Kay et al., 2004) that E. coli and enterococci are better bacterial indicators than coliforms to predict the sanitary risk associated with waters (Edberg et al., 2000; Leclerc et al., 2001; Tallon et al., 2005).”
