Resumen
El agua es un líquido de vital importancia para la salud, por tal razón es imprescindible mantener una calidad microbiológica adecuada, para así garantizar durante su distribución, la ausencia de contaminantes patógenos. El presente trabajo de titulación tuvo como objetivo evaluar la calidad bacteriológica del agua potable distribuida en la parroquia urbana San Lorenzo del cantón Jipijapa. Los análisis se realizaron durante los meses de agosto a noviembre del año 2016, durante este período se analizaron un total de 27 muestras, se determinó que en ninguna de ellas hubo presencia de coliformes fecales, motivo por el cual se la considera como apta para su consumo humano, además, de acuerdo al programa de monitoreo establecido, se indicó que para mantener la calidad e inocuidad de la misma, es recomendable que se realicen controles periódicos de coliformes fecales, cloro libre residual y de turbidez.
