This book is the proceedings of the conference Faecal Indicators:
problem or solution? Has technical progress reduced the need for
faecal indicators? held on 6th to 8th June 2011 at Edinburgh
Conference Centre, Heriot Watt University, UK. It addresses
existing and emerging issues in environmental microbiology which in
turn offer exciting new challenges in microbiology, public health
and environmental science. The ultimate aim being to assist the
monitoring and modelling of environmental systems to protect human
health, animal welfare and environmental quality. With
contributions from leading scientists and experts in academia and
industry, it offers a truly international perspective on both
current research and our ability to respond with useful and
sustainable solutions to many of the emerging challenges of today's
modern communities. The conference featured two combative,
provocative and engaging debates examining the moral issues behind
the statements "What is a coliform and are coliforms relevant to
public health?" and "Do regulations help or hinder the innovation
in testing methods?." The reports of these questions are captured
in the book. The book appeals across the board from those working
in universities and research institutes to local governments, the
water and food industries, and health professionals.
