Abstract in English
A total of 370 bottles of noncarbonated natural mineral water (domestic and
imported) with different bottling dates, were collected directly from the
markets in Syria one word one year 2006.
Bacterial diversity was approached with tentative
identification of the strains isolated using biochemical and enzymatic criteria
(with the aid of API 20 NE identification system for nonfermenters).
