Safe Drinking Water-Another Oxymoron?
- Causes and etiology of waterborne disease
- Role and limitations of traditional microbial indicators for mitigating risk
- Enhanced or alternative approaches to defining potability
Overview of the webinar
This webinar will look at the historical use of indicator organisms to define the safety of drinking water and will examine the limitations of this approach for evaluating water potability. Waterborne outbreaks will be reviewed in the context of identifying the wide etiological scope and the inability of traditional indicators to mitigate these risks. Alternate considerations for assessing potability will also be discussed.
Who should attend?
- Water Regulatory Authorities
- Water Microbiologists
- Food Microbiologists
- Food Safety Managers
- Food Safety Supervisors
Why should you attend?
Learn about the sources and causes of waterborne disease and what microbial options are available to assess and minimize the risk. Get a better understanding of the limitations of current and traditional approaches to evaluating water potability for drinking and industrial purposes.
