In the present work we therefore combined the microbiological analysis of bacterial attachment with physical and chemical characterizations of the fishextract-coated surfaces.
Microbiological studies strengthen the results of the epidemiological studies.
Therefore, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that microbiological differences among inoculum soils affected post-vernalization rye growth.
However, concerns about its microbiological safety still exist, with notable milkborne outbreaks of infectious intestinal disease occurring both at home and abroad in recent years.
The facility to carry out longitudinal antibody monitoring would allow more precise assessment of the risk of infection associated with waters of differing microbiological qualities.
Microbiological samples and information on foodhandling practices and household details were obtained in the same way as for cases.
Due to the short shelf life of salad vegetables, it proved impossible to acquire any suspect foods for microbiological analysis.
The sample, once collected at the surface, could subsequently be analysed by a full suite of analytical techniques including spectroscopic and microbiological analyses.
