Previous Studies on Microbial Quality of Sachet Water in Ghana
For an overview of the indicator organisms used in microbial water quality testing, the reader is advised to make reference to Section 10.4 of Appendix IV, which gives a background to microbial water quality. Previous research works on the quality of sachet water in Ghana include three separate studies in three locations: the Cape Coast Municipality of Ghana (in the Central Region), Kumasi (in the Ashanti Region) and the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area (GAMA). See Figure 2.7. Results of these studies are discussed briefly in this section.
