Effective Concentration and Detection of Cryptosporidium, Giardia, and the Microsporidia from Environmental Matrices
Figure 2
A comparison of split sample analysis at various turbidity amounts by Method 1623 and the CFD + qPCR method for Giardia intestinalis (a) and Cryptosporidium parvum (b). The solid lines represent a 1 : 1 correspondence of results. Solid circles: tap water 0.2 NTU, open circles: tap water 0.4 NTUs, x-squares: 1.1 to 1.3 NTUs, triangles: 3.8 NTUs, squares: 7.1 NTUs, and diamonds: 54 NTUs.
