Abstract
- Results discuss the application of antibiotic resistance analysis using discriminant analysis technique for differentiating animal and human fecal isolates from waters of Florida and to relate antibiotic resistance patterns to the bacterial source. Data show that the fecal streptococcus and fecal coliform formed groups of isolates from known sources with accuracy.
