| Abstract | The influence of nutrients in wastewater from dairy lagoons on the survival of Escherichia coli O157:H7 was monitored. Initially, the survival of E. coli O157:H7 in wastewater from which the competing native organisms had been removed by filter sterilization or autoclaving was compared with that in wastewater from which competing organisms had not been removed. Numbers of E. coli O157:H7 or E. coli ONT (O-nontypeable):H32 cells declined rapidly in filter-sterilized water and exhibited a slower decline in nonsterile water, while the organisms proliferated in autoclaved water. Subsequently, the growth of E. coli O157:H7 strains was monitored in 300 μl of Luria-Bertani (LB) broth supplemented with incremental proportions of filter-sterilized wastewater. E. coli O157:H7 and E. coli ONT:H32 strains failed to grow in filter-sterilized wastewater, and their growth was reduced incrementally with wastewater supplementation of LB broth. Consequently, the influence of organic extracts of wastewater on the growth of E. coli O157:H7 and E. coli ONT:H32 in reduced-strength LB was monitored, followed by scale-up tests in wastewater. Acidic and basic extracts inhibited growth of both strains, while the neutral aqueous extract improved growth. However, a scale-up with a threefold increase in the acidic components supplementing the wastewater did not result in any additional decline in numbers of E. coli O157:H7 cells. When protected inside a 300-kDa dialysis tube and exposed to diffusible components, E. coli O157:H7 survived longer, with a decimal reduction time of 18.1 days, compared to 3.5 days when inoculated directly into wastewater. Although wastewater can potentially provide nutrients to naturally occurring human pathogens, the chemical components, protozoa, and coliphages in wastewater can inhibit the growth of freshly introduced pathogens from manure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
