Answer #1

Answer - None of the above

Explanation

All the above method are reliable to analyse the bacteria count in the water sample. The method are different but the outcome is similar, all the above method helps us to determine the number of bacteria.

Microscopic count method is the most easy method to analyse the number of bacteria in the sample. The smear of sample is rubbed on the glass slide and bacteria are analysed by staining. Viable count method helps use to determine the total viable/ living bacteria in the sample by using trypan blue dye. Turbidimetric method is also useful to determine bacteria count by analysing the turbidity of solutions.

Hence all the method has different principles and output but all the method are equally reliable.
