Abstract
Preliminary results on the concentration of aerobic, heterotrophic mar ine bacteria, and on its luminescent fraction in plated filters of coa stal water samples, both under ''clean'' and polluted conditions, are reported. The feasibility of the application of such an approach in ch aracterizing the integrity of marine environments, with the perspectiv e of developing a water quality index, is discussed.
