[Behaviour of indicator bacteria in microbial slime on surfaces of walls in drinkingwater-reservoirs (author's transl)].
Slime formed by microbial activity on surfaces of a tightening compound (Silicon) and Epoxid-Coating in the sphere of drinking-water does not support survival of bacteria like E. coli, S. marcescens, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus and B. subtilis. The enterobacteriaeceae remained countable over a period of nine weeks, P. aeruginosa even eighteen weeks. Whereas the grampositive Bacteria died during the short time of one week. Autoclaved slime promoted the growth of the gramnegative bacteria.
