Abstract

The methods used for the detection and identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) in various waters are considered. The main characteristics of the methods are compared, their disadvantages and advantages are given.

Attention is drawn to the conflicting requirements established in different methods, the low sensitivity of methods that do not provide for sample concentration, and the need to use outdated analysis procedures, as well as nutrient media with low growth and differentiating properties. Using the methods for determining P. aeruginosa in water as an example, it is shown that the domestic methodological base for sanitary control of water quality, including compliance with the requirements for packaged water (TR EAEU 044 / 2018), needs to be modernized taking into account international experience in this field.
