This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of the study motivation of increased global populations and growing recognition of zoonotic diseases, and Microbial Source Tracking (MST) - a suite of tests used to identify specificsources of fecal contamination. Study objective was to determine whetheralternative approaches tothe culture-method for R.coprophilus can shortenanalysis time from ~ 1month to within ~ 1 week. Alternatives included the PCR-based method, and modeling to determine statistical relationships between R. coprophilus, fecal contamination, andwater quality degradation. Topics presented include: a multiple linear regression model; dependent variables (X)evaluated; construction data set; optimized model; and, challenge data set. Includes tables, figures.
