title: Prevalence & distribution of aeromonads in different chlorinated water samples.
abstract: Four different sites were selected for sampling of water samples--river, pond, hand-pump, and municipal water. These were analyzed for physico-chemical and bacteriological parameters with special reference to aeromonads following standard methods. Chlorinated disinfectants in the form of powder and liquid (drops) were used for the treatment. Out of which powdered forms were found to be more effective. Although chlorination reduced the density of aeromonads to some extent but still its presence cannot be behold.
