Abstract

The application of advanced and highly sensitive molecular techniques to the detection of specific bacteria in the freshwater environment is limited, in the first instance, by sampling strategy and sample quality. Further combinations of molecular methods and techniques from apparently unrelated disciplines will ultimately shape the monitoring techniques of the future.
