This has become important enough as an article component that the "A" of abstract may sometimes be added to "IMRAD" yielding "AIMRAD". The abstract should, however, be composed to function as an autonomous text, even if most authors and readers will think of it as an integral part of the article. There is a strong recent trend toward developing formal requirements for abstracts, most often structured on the IMRAD pattern, and often with strict additional specifications of topical content items that should be considered for Saleem-ur-Rehman inclusion in the abstract.4 Such abstracts are often Editor-in-Chief 5 IJPD Vol. 7 Issue 1 Evaluation of coliform in tap water of forty one towns of ten districts of Kashmir valley Saleem-ur-Rehman1, Rehana Kausar2, S.M. Kadri2, Sajad Hassan2, Maria Jeelani2 :ABSTRACT: The coliform group has been used extensively as an indicator of water quality and has historically led to the public health protection concept. The aim of the study was to evaluate the status of tap water in the Kashmir valley, and to monitor coliforms using the multiple tube method known as Most Probable Number (MPN). MPN proved highly successful when it was used to detect faecal pollution and to monitor water quality during outbreaks of water borne diseases in the valley. Total forty one towns of ten districts of three subdivisions were studied. The coliform count of tap water of Kashmir valley varied greatly. District Srinagar showed the lowest level of MPN ≤ 2/100ml of tap water. However the bacterial count of tap water of the majority of the towns exceeded the recommended permissible level of WHO. The introduction of sewage into the drinking water was the main reason for the bacterial contamination. Recycling sewage water was necessary to minimize the water borne diseases. During the study it was found that the tap water
