Abstract

A survey on the bacteriological quality of both drinking water and flavoured drinks from coin-operated vending machines is reported. Forty-four per cent of 25 drinking water samples examined contained coliforms and 84% had viable counts of greater than 1000 organisms ml at 30 degrees C. Thirty-one flavoured drinks were examined; 6% contained coliforms and 39% had total counts greater than 1000 organisms ml. It is suggested that the D.H.S.S. code of practice on coin-operated vending machines is not being followed. It is also suggested that drinking water alone should not be dispensed from such machines.

自动售货机饮料的细菌质量。
对投币自动售货机的饮用水和调味饮料的细菌质量进行了调查。在接受检查的25个饮用水样本中,44%含有大肠菌群,84%在30摄氏度下的活菌计数超过1000毫升。6%含有大肠菌群,39%的细菌总数超过1000毫升。这表明,投币自动售货机的操作规范没有得到遵守。也有人建议,单是饮用水不应该从这种机器中分发。
