Abstract
Establishes the accuracy of clinically based taxonomic systems (API 20E, Enterotube) and other emerging taxonomic techniques (gene probe, fatty acid profile) to correctly speciate non-coli Escherichia isolated from drinking water. Incorrect speciation may result in unnecessary public notification and increased monitoring. Published in Journal AWWA, 85(2):74 - 76, February 1993.
