The long term objective of this project is to prevent or attempt to reduce the incidence of cholera where people must depend on natural ground water especially under the abnormal circumstances such as after flooding or post natural disaster situations. A simple filtration method developed and optimized in the laboratory will be evaluated in the field to demonstrate the effciacy in reducing the number of V. cholerae cells in household water in Matlab, Bangladesh. Sari cloth, worn by most women in the villages in Bangladesh was used as a filter and will be to used to remove V. cholerae associated plankton and particles present in surface water. This device is expected to be the most convenient for the villagers without economic, social and cultural impediments.

该项目的长期目标是防止或试图 减少人们必须依赖自然的霍乱发病率 地下水特别是在异常情况下，如 洪水或自然灾害后的情况。 简单的过滤 在实验室中开发和优化的方法将在 现场演示减少V的数量的有效性。 在孟加拉国的Matlab，家庭用水中的霍乱细胞。 纱丽布， 孟加拉国那些村庄的大多数妇女都戴着一个过滤器， 并将用于去除霍乱弧菌相关浮游生物， 存在于地表水中的颗粒。 该设备预计将成为 最方便的村民没有经济，社会和文化 障碍。
