  The current investigation was done to detect and numerate coliforms at different ghats of Ganga River. The project aims to check the bacteriological quality of water and to check resistant profile of most prevalent isolates. These samples were processed and analysed for their quality with respect to various microbiological aspects. Methods used for the investigation of coliform are MPN method. According to the method all water samples collected from different Ghats were unsafe. The water was mainly contaminated by coliform bacteria Escherichia, followed by Klebsiella, Enterobacter and Citrobacter. 29 different species were identified from ten different ghats. Drug susceptibility of isolates revealed that highest susceptibility was seen in Tetracycline and ciprofloxacin. .. Read More»
