- Abstract
Objectives: Hospital wastewater is a waste product from hospital activities that are infectious and toxic so that it can affect health. In this case, the wastewater analyzed is wastewater in one of the Tasikmalaya City Hospitals. The purpose of this study is to determine the analyzed wastewater containing coliform bacteria that meets the requirements following Kep-58/ MENLH/12/1995. The sample examination was carried out with the MPN method in the Microbiology Laboratory Bakti Tunas Husada Health Science College. The results of the analysis of coliform bacteria contamination of hospital wastewater using the MPN method containing coliform bacteria with an MPN value of 350 cells/100 mL. This shows that the content of coliform bacteria contained in hospital wastewater meets the requirements of hospital wastewater quality standards that are less than 1000 cells/100 mL. So the results obtained from these samples meet the requirements following Kep 58 /MENLH /12/1995.
