E-Coli
Hi,
As we know E-Coli is a indicator for sewage conamination we have to assess MPN of ecoli in sample. The permanent solution is to find the contamination source and solve the problem. But as a temparory measure disinfection is the only solution. Disinfection at home is only boiling. so if you drink boiled water than no problem. But if you go for RO. You can be very safe not only from this biological contamination and also from harmfull chemicals, heavymetals contamination.
The water has to be tested for other pathogens. if its only E-coli its not that much harmfull as in our intestine itself we have E-coli.
Hope this will help you,
regards
