Phylogenetic assessment of heterotrophic bacteria from a water distribution system using 16S rDNA sequencing

Determination of a heterotrophic plate count (HPC) for drinking-water samples alone is not enough to assess possible health hazards associated with sudden changes in the bacterial count. Speciation is very crucial to determine whether the population includes pathogens and (or) opportunistic pathogen...
