| dc.description.abstract | Basic microbiological water safety is monitored by bacterial parameters that indicate faecal contamination but the list of parameters is often extended at a local or national/state level. Most of the parameters used correlate with gastro-intestinal illness and little more, although viruses are usually the cause of the ailments. Other microbes that can cause illness other than gastro-intestinal and several emerging pathogens are usually not included in drinking water regulation safety parameters. Such is the case of Fungi that persistently fall off the radar of water production, even though there have been reported outbreaks caused by the inhalation of aerosols and are also known causes of taste quality decrease and mycotoxin production. Should the Medical Mycology community lead the way to integrate fungi in current drinking water regulation? | pt_PT |
