Figure 7. Water quality monitoring at a Danish cattle slaughterhouse.
(A) Part of the 11 weeks monitoring campaign showing bacteria peaks occurring daily. (B) Overlaying daily bacteria curves for normal workdays show a daily peak occurring in the early morning. One day also showed a gradually increasing bacterial concentration. (C) Applying the developed bacteria sensor, total bacteria counts, and plate counts. Peaks for plate counts at 22 °C and total counts co-occurred with the peaks measured by the sensor. However, plate counts at 37 °C showed peaks that did not correlate with other parameters.
