	Study urges caution in contaminant source tracking
		When researchers sent E. coli challenge isolates (the sources of which were unknown to those conducting the tests) for testing, many isolates either remained unclassified or were classified to incorrect sources.
		Some E. coli strains have been found in more than one animal source, such as when animals live in close proximity with one another, though no evidence to support this premise was found in the USGS study.
		For the immediate future, researchers and end users would be prudent to use caution and to incorporate quality-control measures to validate the accuracy of source tracking results.

	Microbiology - Source Tracking
		The objective of the fecal source-tracking project is to develop a technique to determine the source of fecal contamination in surface and ground waters.
		Current methods used to identify the source of fecal contamination, culture fecal indicator organisms [fecal coliforms, E. coli, or fecal streptococci (enterococci)] and group them based on physiological or genomic profiles.
		The approach of this study is to use a community DNA fingerprinting technique, t-RFLP (terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism) to identify unique DNA fingerprints for different possible sources of fecal material (human, cattle, seagulls, etc.).

	IEH \| Microbial Source Tracking
		Limited efforts to track sources of natural bacterial populations have been made; the approaches used were based on quantification of indicator organisms at various sites; however, these studies invariably have raised more questions than answers.
		This validated tracking system for identification of sources of microbial pollution can be used to identify and assess the impact and contribution of non point sources of microbial pollution and to establish and characterize the impact of the point sources of microbial pollution in fecal runoff.
		The method can be used to identify the sources of fecal coliforms at the species level and map their distribution, transport, and movement in watersheds, rivers, lakes, and drinking-water-distribution systems.

		Commonly, fecal sources are misinterpreted and more often than not the sources are assumed to be anthropogenic in nature as a result of lack of credible scientific investigations.

	Source Tracking Identifies Origins of Waterborne Pathogens
		In applying source tracking or genetic fingerprinting, pure cultures of E.coli (or other enteric pathogens) are isolated from both the receiving water and the suspected sources.
		The use of molecular techniques in source tracking is relatively new, in use for about the last six years.
		Since source tracking methods are effective tools for determining origins of fecal contamination of water bodies, they can be used to design best management practices to reduce fecal loading.

		We contacted several of the interested departments to discuss their source tracking needs and to determine whether further training in microbial source tracking techniques was warranted and whether a demonstration microbial source tracking project with their department was feasible.
		The Source Molecular commercial ribotype service charges for all reference and fecal isolates; at the time of the survey their price per isolate was only $64, but presently their web site lists a price of $90 per isolate (minimum 5 isolates per water sample).
		Users of Source Molecular ribotype services seemed pleased with the professional handling of samples and fast turn around time; however, their reliability of identifying blind “challenge” samples (i.e., where the host was known to the submitter but concealed from the tracking service) was not good.

		Examples include determining specific sources of animal contamination, looking for regrowth patterns of E. coli in water and sediment samples, monitoring point sources of pollution, and pinpointing sources of contamination such as sludge run-off.
		The DNA fingerprints of the E. coli isolates are also compared to an internal library of E. coli strains to determine a probable source, either human or animal (or both).
		For example, for regrowth studies, direct comparative analysis is used, whereas for animal source tracking determination, Bionumeric and bootstrap statastical analysis is used.

		Setting both the Tracking Source and Frequency lets you and your employees plan how often you will document their efforts and give them feedback on how well they're doing.
		To track Behavioral Expectations on the Dimensions, however, you will need to plan how to observe your employees' Behavioral Expectations such as "Greets customers promptly and courteously" or "Reviews work carefully for completeness and accuracy." You can monitor trends related to the employee's Behavioral Expectations using the STAR method.
		As you select tracking measures, think about how often you will be able to observe or document each expectation, since it may not be possible to directly observe each employee on a daily basis.

	Bacterial Source Tracking (BST)
		While great strides have been made to identify levels or concentration of fecal pollution in our waterways, finding the source or cause of that pollution is necessary if the problem is to be corrected.
		As humans, domestic animals, and wildlife cohabitate many regions of the country, simply reporting high fecal bacterial counts in a waterway does not indicate whether the source is the result of a leaky septic tank, the adjacent feed lot, or the large deer population.
		Activities are currently underway to provide grant and contracted services to federal and state agencies, as well as to private citizens and citizen groups seeking to identify the source of fecal contamination in their region or state.

		Traditionally, most source code control and change management tools do a pretty good job of tracking who is responsible for which versions of which code if the software in question was developed internally.
		Starting a new Apache open source project, Archiva, Mergere is using the technology to provide a form of sandbox where you collect open source artifacts, label them as such, and place flags or alerts like when the development team should check on the status or rights to the code.
