Abstract
A simplified microfluidic device for quantification of bacteria in potable water was fabricated and examined. Comparisons of counts of Escherichia coli by the microfluidic system and by epifluorescence microscopy closely correlated (r2=0.99). Bacteria in natural mineral water and in purified household tap water were accurately enumerated by using this system within 15 min after fluorescent staining.Entities:
