Abstract
⺠Rotavirus, pathogenic E. coli, Shigella, and Vibrio were detected in rural Bangladesh groundwater. ⺠FIB (culturable E. coli) correlated and exhibited no false negatives towards only pathogenic E. coli. ⺠Annually averaged monthly measurements of culturable E. coli improved prediction for total bacterial pathogens. ⺠qPCR-based E. coli was the best indicator of bacterial pathogens. ⺠F+RNA coliphage were not a good indicator of rotavirus.
