Early succession of biofilm bacterial communities in newly built drinking water pipelines via multi-area analysis

Xiaochen Chen et al.

Summary: Biofilms on pipeline walls are crucial for drinking water quality and safety. The process of biofilm formation in newly built pipes and its impact on water quality are poorly understood, as are the differences and connections between biofilms in new and old pipes. This study examined the early succession of biofilm bacterial communities in a newly built cement-lined ductile iron pipeline and compared them with those in old pipelines. The results provide insights into the accurate prediction and management of biofilm microbial communities in drinking water pipelines and ensuring the biosafety of water.

Impact of pipe material and chlorination on the biofilm structure and microbial communities

Xinyue Zhang et al.

Summary: Pipe material and chlorination significantly influence the structure and microbial community of biofilms, with polyethylene showing lower biomass and microbial diversity. Chlorination inhibits bacterial colonization and influences the functional traits of certain bacteria genera.

The role of shear dynamics in biofilm formation

Erifyli Tsagkari et al.

Summary: There is evidence that individual bacteria can sense and respond to changes in mechanical loading. However, the specific responses of multispecies biofilms to dynamic fluid shear stress have not been well documented. In this study, the development of biofilms in drinking water on flow channel walls was observed under different flow regimes. The results showed that the dynamics of shear stress played a significant role in promoting biofilm development, beyond just the magnitude or mass transfer effects. This finding suggests that mechanosensing may be important in complex multispecies biofilms and could lead to new ways of controlling biofilm structure.

Microbial abundance and community composition in biofilms on in-pipe sensors in a drinking water distribution system

Masaaki Kitajima et al.

Summary: This study analyzed microbial communities in biofilm and water samples collected from a DWDS where monochloramine is used as a residual disinfectant. The study revealed differences in microbial species and abundance in different pipe sections representing different water ages, providing novel insights into the microbial ecology of DWDS.

Effects of bacterial community composition and structure in drinking water distribution systems on biofilm formation and chlorine resistance

Zebing Zhu et al.

Summary: The study investigated the formation of multi-species biofilms in simulated DWDS and found that community-intrinsic properties could affect the formation of multi-species biofilms. The resistance of multi-species biofilms to chlorine was influenced by specific bacteria, with some promoting growth and others inhibiting it. The study concluded that community-intrinsic properties were maintained at low disinfectant concentrations but weakened at higher concentrations, affecting the resistance of microbial communities to disinfectants.

Influence of pipe materials on the microbial community in unchlorinated drinking water and biofilm

K. L. G. Learbuch et al.

Summary: The study investigated the influence of different pipe materials on microbial populations in water and biofilm under semi-stagnant conditions. The results showed that pipe materials affect ATP concentrations, gene copy numbers of specific microbial groups, and bacterial community composition. Different materials had different effects on microbial communities in water and biofilm.

Microbial composition and diversity of drinking water: A full scale spatial-temporal investigation of a city in northern China

Zibo Jing et al.

Summary: The study characterized bacterial communities in DWDS in northern China using high-throughput sequencing, finding no significant differences among the entire bacterial community between different DWDSs, but variations with seasons. Switching water sources may increase the relative abundance of potentially opportunistic pathogens in DWDSs.

Diverse and active archaea communities occur in non-disinfected drinking water systems-Less activity revealed in disinfected and hot water systems

Jenni Inkinen et al.

Summary: The study characterized archaea communities in five full-scale drinking water distribution systems, showing that archaea were dominant in non-disinfected cold water samples, with different community structures revealed by DNA and RNA analysis. Diversity of archaea communities was affected by disinfection and temperature, with fewer species in biofilms, indicating only certain members survived in that environment.

Effects of disinfectants and particles on the occurrence of different microorganisms in drinking water distribution systems

Lixin Huo et al.

Summary: The study found that maintaining certain levels of free chlorine and total chlorine residual can effectively control the growth of opportunistic pathogens in drinking water distribution systems. Additionally, controlling the particle number can also limit the growth of pathogens. This suggests that there may be a trade-off in selecting disinfectant residuals or particles to control the growth of opportunistic pathogens in DWDSs.

Cast iron drinking water pipe biofilms support diverse microbial communities containing antibiotic resistance genes, metal resistance genes, and class 1 integrons

Lee K. Kimbell et al.

Summary: The study found bacterial resistance genes and metal resistance genes in drinking water distribution pipes, and although there were significant changes in dominant microbial taxa, the concentration of resistance genes did not differ significantly between different sample types. High concentrations of Mycobacterium and beta-lactam resistance genes were positively correlated with Mycobacterium.
