Aim: The aim of the study was to know the quality of drill water which is close to the source of high pollution in Bukittinggi City that is suitable for public consumption. Materials and Methods: Using most probable number (MPN) and total plate count (TPC) method were used. Results and Discussion: The number of MPN >2400 bacteria/100 ml in sample A, 150 bacteria/100 ml in sample B, and >2400 bacteria/100 ml in sample C. As for TPC calculation result obtained 3752 x 10 2 coliform/ml in sample A, 4414 x 10 2 coliform/ml in sample B, and 5941 x 10 2 coliform/ml in sample C. Conclusion: Drilling water near the source of high pollution in Bukittinggi City is contaminated with coliform bacteria. Drilling water near the source of high pollution in Bukittinggi City is not feasible to be consumed when compared to good quality condition according to Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia 2010 and Indonesian National Standard (SNI) number 01-3553-2006.
Aim: To evaluate the quality of water used in the manufacture of household ice cubes in market of Bukittinggi. Material and Methods: Household ice cube samples were tested Most Probable Number (MPN) and Total Plate Count (TPC) method to determine MPN of Coliform and Coli fecal bacteria. Results and Discussion: The result is Most Probable Number (MPN) value of Coliform and coli fecal on Ice Cube A equal to Ice Cube B about 1100 Coliform/100 ml, meanwhile seller C has greater amount compared to the two previous seller, amounting to >2400 Coliform/100mL. For Total Plate Count (TPC), The number of sellers A = 181×10 4 Coliform/g, seller B = 20,7×10 4 Coliform/g, and seller C = 1920×10 4 Coliform/g. Conclusion: The household ice cubes used by the drink seller in market of Bukittinggi are not suitable for consumption.
