Educational Fact Sheets

As we conducted this Project, we realized that there are a number of educational fact sheets and resources that exist that we could share with our volunteers rather than "re-inventing the wheel" and producing fact sheets about E. coli. Below, we highlight a number of valuable resources about E . coli including information about sources, sinks, research, etc. Also visit our Related Research page, our State-Specific Happenings page, and our Nationwide Bacteria Monitoring page for more resources and links.
