Evaluation of a tangential-flow multiple-filter technique for detection of Giardia lamblia cysts in water

J L Isaac-Renton et al. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1986 Aug.

Abstract

A system of tangential-flow filtration was evaluated for use in the detection of Giardia cysts in drinking water. This method was more sensitive in recovering cysts than a frequently used wound-orlon system of through-filtration.
