Description:
1. Standard methods for the enumeration of heterotrophic bacteria in water have traditionally used nutritionally rich media, such as Plate Count Agar, with incubation at 35°C1. Organisms isolated under these conditions may represent only a small percentage of the bacteria present in the sample 2.
2. R2A Agar developed by Reasoner and Geldreich 2 is a nutritionally reduced medium. It was demonstrated that using this medium and incubating for longer at lower temperatures enhanced the recovery of stressed and chlorine damaged bacteria from treated waters resulting in higher, more realistic bacterial counts.
