Table 3
RNA concentrations, RNA integrity numbers (RIN) and DNA concentrations for water samples. Standard deviations are in brackets. *Several samples had RNA concentrations
that were below the limit of quantification (LOQ) for measurement of RIN.
Sample type Average RNA concentration (ng/ml) Average RIN Average DNA concentration (ng/ml)
Fig. 3. Comparisons of copy numbers from uidA qPCR, ybbW qPCR and clpB qNASBA against colony counts for E. coli in environmental water samples. The dotted lines represent
linear regressions in qPCRs with >100 CFU/PCR for the uidA assay (R2 ¼ 0.639) and >10 CFU/PCR for the ybbW assay (R2 ¼ 0.673).
