Evaluation of Aeromonas legal standard

Since the 1980s Aeromonas in drinking water has been included as a microbiological parameter in the Dutch Drinking Water Decree. Currently, Aeromonas standard exceedances are generally tolerated, partly because it is unclear…

Biological stability parameters in operational practice

New methods for determining and predicting biological stability developed since 2010 are applied less often in daily drinking water practice than are the previously existing older methods. This,…

Survival and growth of water lice in (2018-2020 follow-up)

This research investigated whether water lice can survive and grow on biofilms. This information makes it possible to establish preventive measures to control the spread of water lice.…

Biological activity
Survival and growth of water lice on organic matter in drinking water distribution networks

Earlier research has indicated that a correlation exists between the presence of water lice and the Aeromonas count in drinking water, and that this bacterium probably partly lives…

Biological activity
Water lice and Aeromonas

Drinking water contains a large variety of nutrients which (harmless) bacteria can use to grow. These bacteria could in turn serve as a food source for water lice, for instance. We still do not know much about…
