Article Synopsis
- Increasing numbers of studies indicate that the presence of specific bacteria in environmental water sources is more than just rare occurrences from small fecal contamination.
- A meta-analysis was conducted to assess the frequency and variability of bacteria across different water sources, aiming to identify factors that influence detection rates.
- Results showed that water source type, particularly surface versus groundwater, significantly affects detection rates, with higher frequencies observed in countries with lower human development indices and influenced by the sample volume collected.
