METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF DIVERSITY AND VIABILITY THRESHOLDS USED TO ASSESS MICROORGANISMS IN PROCESS SAMPLES |
摘要 |
The invention is directed towards methods and compositions for identifying the specific microorganisms present in a particular potion of a water process system. The method involves obtaining a sample from the process and determining if a problematic organism exceeds an acceptable threshold. If so a remedial bio-control procedure can be applied long before any unwanted defects or problems occur. |

1. A method of anticipating a microorganism caused problem in a water process system, the method comprising the steps of:
measuring the overall microorganism population in at least a portion of the system; measuring the amount of at least one subgroup of microorganism population relative to the overall microorganism population; determining if the amount of at least one subgroup of microorganisms exceeds a threshold, the threshold being at least one of a pre-determined: absolute amount of the subgroup of microorganisms, a relative amount of the subgroup of microorganisms, and any combination thereof; and optionally enacting a bio-control procedure to remediate the presence of the at least one subgroup of microorganisms. |
