Which organisms are considered the best indicator of water potability?
Escherichia coli
Is it safe to drink bore-well water?
It may be perfectly safe but you should always get a biological test for potability.
How is well water determined safe for well users?
Users who drink the water should take a bio sample to a lab at least annually. A normal test for human potability usually costs 25-40 depending on the lab. They test for coliforms and other contaminants. It's worth it to be re-assured your water is safeUsers who drink the water should take a bio sample to a lab at least annually.

What has the author James E Moyer written?
James E. Moyer has written: 'Bacteriologic potability of condensate water from heat exchangers of pressure suits' -- subject(s): Water reuse, Water-supply, Space vehicles
What is the rationale for selecting E coli as the indicator of water potability?
E. coli is selected as an indicator of water potability because it is a reliable marker of fecal contamination, indicating the potential presence of harmful pathogens. It is easily detectable and quantifiable using standard laboratory techniques, allowing for quick assessment of water quality. Moreover, E. coli is typically found in the intestines of warm-blooded animals, making its presence a clear signal of environmental contamination from human or animal waste. Its absence in water suggests a lower risk of pathogenic microorganisms that can cause waterborne diseases.
Why is it necessary to have small highly densely packed circuit?
Think of a cell phone or a smart phone, these items need to fit in a pocket. If you ever crack one open you will see there is little room for extra space. in general, smaller technology is better because of potability.
What is drinking water PH?
No, anything above 8 ph is not good for drinking. Take a sample to a lab for 'potability testing'No, anything above 8 ph is not good for drinking.
Why are coliforms selected as the indicator of water potability?
Coliforms are used as an indicator of water portability because they may be associated with the sources of pathogens that contaminates the water and they can be easily cultured and detected.
What are the main ingredients in well water?
Anything that is in the ground may be in well water in very small quantities. This is why well water should be tested annually for potability ( human safety) and for minerals. It is quite common for minerals such as iron to be found in well water, - not poisonous but harmful to plumbing. Almost all items can be removed by different kinds of filtering. -However I cannot stress enough, if you use well water for human consumption, get it tested !Anything that is in the ground may be in well water in very small quantities.

How does toothpaste help to prevent itching in mosquito bites?
The toothpase, if flouridated, helps support the foundations that support those who secure the potability of water in areas where the malaria pathogen is kept copasthetic; when that enesthetic balance is maintained in an appropriately adequate way, the reaction of the skin in the flouridated area to a mosquito bite is dulled by the quality of the breathing air. Thus, the mechanism is similar to that of the medieval weapon salve.
In case of doubt as to the potability of water what precaution must be taken before the water is used for drinking purposes?
Boiling is the most certain way of killing all microorganisms. According to the Wilderness Medical Society, water temperatures above 160° F (70° C) kill all pathogens within 30 minutes and above 185° F (85° C) within a few minutes. So in the time it takes for the water to reach the boiling point (212° F or 100° C) from 160° F (70° C), all pathogens will be killed, even at high altitude. To be extra safe, let the water boil rapidly for one minute, especially at higher altitudes since water boils at a lower temperature (see page 68.)
Why does water have no taste?
No, water does not have a taste.Answer:Connoisseurs of water have preferences in the taste of the water they drink. This is due to the contaminants present (or absent) in the water. Water potability (usefulness as a drinking water source) is ranked in part by standardized taste and odour tests. Many of the natural spring waters bottled for sale have built their reputation on taste and the better tasting ones sell at a premium price. Scotch drinkers in particular opt for specific waters from springs and glaciers that improve the taste of the scotch.Water without contaminants (even gases such as air) is described as having an insipid taste.
