escherichia coli
a rod shaped bacteria commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract and feces of warm blooded animals It is a member of the fecal coliform group of bacteria and is distinguished from them by its inability to break down urease The addition of urea substrate confirms that colonies are E coli This bacteria is a preferred indicator for freshwater recreational waters and its presence provides direct evidence of fecal contamination from warm blooded animals Although usually harmless, E coli can cause illnesses such as meningitis, septicemia, urinary tract, and intestinal infections A recently discovered strain of E coli (E coli 0157: H7) can cause severe disease and may be fatal in small children and the elderly
