Abstract
The viability of V. cholerae Inaba and Ogawa in distilled water, municipal water
and sea water both at room temperature (28-30°C) and at refrigerated temperatures
(5- l0°C) is discussed. The survival varied from 20 h in distilled water at room temperature
to 38-40 days in sterile sea water at room temperature. Extended viability was noticed
in all cases at refrigerated temperature and maximum viability of 165-170 days was
noticed in sterile sea water at 5-l0°C.
