      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]Hence, it is essential to check the quality of the available drinking water from various sources. In view of this present study was designed to analyze the microbiological quality of the available drinking water from various sources like food stalls, tea stalls, supply water, packaged water to facilitate the examination of level of contamination and finally hence the risk associated with their consumption.     1.2    Statement of the ProblemThe most common and widespread dang ...

      CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.0    DiscussionAn acceptable pH for drinking water is between pH 6.5 to pH 8.5, recommended by WHO as a guideline value and in the absence of a distribution system acceptable range may be broader. However, the water samples examined in this study were within the acceptable pH range. For the presumptive coliforms test, the WHO guideline for both treated and untreated water samples is 0/100 ml (WHO, 2009), but in an occasional untreated water sample 3 coliform/100 ml are allowed o ...
