Microorganisms that can cause disease in other organisms or in humans, animals and plants (e.g., bacteria, viruses, or parasites) found in sewage, in runoff from farms or rural areas populated with domestic and wild animals, and in water used for swimming. Fish and shellfish contaminated by pathogens, or the contaminated water itself, can cause serious illness.
Agents, such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi, that cause disease. Some bacteria pathogens are food-borne, such as salmonella.
Any organism that causes disease in another.
Organisms capable of producing diseases in humans or animals.
Any microorganism that causes disease.
Microorganisms that can cause disease in other organisms or humans, animals, and plants. Pathogens include bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites found in sewage, in runoff from farms or city streets, and in water used for swimming. Pathogens can be present in municipal, industrial, and nonpoint source discharges.
organisms that produce disease.
any microscopic organism that can cause a disease.
A micro organism that can cause disease when it infects a host.
Microorganisms that can cause disease. Public restrooms have plenty of pathogens. Disinfectants are used in restrooms to kill these pathogens. Examples of pathogens commonly found in restrooms include bacteria, viruses and fungi.
an agent of disease such as a virus or bacterium.
An organism that can produce disease.
Pathogenic micro-organisms.
Tiny disease-causing microorganisms such as viruses, fungi, and bacteria.
Any disease-producing agent (such as virus, bacterium, fungus or other microorganism).
Microorganisms, such as bacteria and viruses which can cause disease. These are different microorganisms from the ones used to treat wastewater. A plant tour This drawing shows how wastewater moves through the Kennebunk Sewer District Plant as it is treated. Below is a brief explanation of each step. You can click on each title for a more detailed explanation and a picture.
virus and bacteria with potentially life-impacting qualities.
Microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria and parasites that can cause illness in people exposed to them through swimming in, or consuming fish or shellfish from, contaminated waters.
a specific causative agent (as a bacterium or virus) of disease.
living microorganisms that cause disease in man, animals, or plants.
Disease-causing organisms.
Organisms that cause (e.g., certain bacteria and viruses).
Pathogens are bacteria and viruses that cause disease.
Infectious diseases in humans, animal and plants that are caused by microscopic organisms; germs.
Organisms (e.g. bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi) that cause disease in human beings.
Organisms that cause disease. Examples in wastewater include Salmonella, Vibro Cholera, Entamoeba histolytica, etc.
Microorganisms that live and feed (parasitically) on or in a larger host organism, and thereby cause injury to the host.
disease-producing microorganisms and toxins.
disease causing microbes, such as cryptosporidium and giardia, that may be resistant to chlorine
Micro-organisms that can cause disease
An organism capable of producing disease.
Pathogens are micro-organisms that can cause diseases to both humans and plants
organisms, usually viruses, bacteria or fungi, capable of causing disease.
Anything that can cause disease. Common pathogens include bacteria, viruses, and parasites.
This refers to any agent that causes diseases such as bacterium, virus, protozoan, or fungus.
Bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi that can cause disease.
a microorganism that produces disease.
are specific agents that cause disease.
Any agent that can cause disease
Microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, viruses, or parasites) that can cause disease in humans, animals and plants.
Any disease-producing organisms, including viruses; any organism (usually living) capable of producing serious disease or death, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
