Epidemic curve of a waterborne outbreak in Vuorela, July 2012 based on the reported onset date of illness of the cases, and <i>E. coli</i> bacteria counts and chlorine levels in the point 7 (See Fig. 1) of the water distribution network.

Microbiological results of faecal samples from symptomatic patients of a waterborne outbreak in Vuorela, July 2012.
<p>Methods used were cultivation<sup>1</sup>, PCR/RT-PCR<sup>2</sup> (polymerase chain reaction/reverse transcripition-PCR), EM<sup>3</sup> (electron microscopy) and/or EIA<sup>4</sup> (Enzyme Immunoassay). <sup>5</sup><i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> and <sup>6</sup>EHEC O157:H7 (from one sample) and <sup>7</sup>sapovirus GII.P3 were isolated from the samples.</p
Phylogenetic relationships among OTUs (•) of the genus <i>Arcobacter</i> in a waterborne outbreak in Vuorela, July 2012.
<p>The tree was inferred from a maximum likelihood analysis of aligned 16S rRNA gene sequence (≈255 bp) and nodes with a bootstrap value ≥50% of 1 000 replicates are identified. <i>Sulfurospirillum deleyianum</i> (NR_074378) and <i>Campylobacter fetus</i> (L04314) were used as outgroup. Number in bracket represents the total amount of DNA/RNA reads identified in samples from A) the upper storage reservoir before cleaning, B) tap water during contamination and C) the upper storage reservoir after cleaning. *<i>A. butzleri</i>, <i>A. cryaerophilus</i> and <i>A. skirrowii</i> have been associated with gastrointestinal diseases <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0104713#pone.0104713-Collado1" target="_blank">[76]</a>.</p
