“…were found in some samples. Multidrug resistance (amoxicillin, ampicillin, and cephalothin) was also identified, indicating that water was unsafe for human consumption without further treatment [88]. Other problems identified were the lack of information or irregular registration of some parameters [36,76], lack of inspection of water quality and registration of water sources [35], and reduced compliance with surveillance actions in rural areas [40].…”

This study identified and mapped worldwide surveillance actions and initiatives of drinking water quality implemented by government agencies or public health services. The scoping review was conducted between July 2021 and August 2022 based on the Joanna Briggs Institute. The search was performed in relevant databases and grey literature; 49 studies were obtained. Quantitative variables were presented as absolute and relative frequencies, while qualitative variables were analyzed using the IRaMuTeQ software. The actions developed worldwide and their impacts and results provided four thematic classes: (1) assessment of coverage, accessibility, quantity, and drinking water quality in routine and emergency situations; (2) analysis of physical-chemical and microbiological parameters in public supply networks or alternative water supply solutions; (3) identification of household water contamination, communication, and education with the community; (4) and investigation of water-borne disease outbreaks. Preliminary results were shared with stakeholders to favor early knowledge dissemination.

The actions developed worldwide and their impacts and results generated four thematic classes: (1) assessment of coverage, accessibility, quantity, and drinking water quality in routine and emergency situations; (2) analysis of physical–chemical and microbiological parameters in public supply networks or alternative water supply solutions; (3) identification of household water contamination, communication, and education with the community; (4) and investigation of water-borne disease outbreaks.

“…These approaches give vital information on the bacteria, but it is time‐consuming and expensive when analyzing vast numbers (Rahi et al., 2016; Santos et al., 2016). It has been reported that matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization‐time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI–TOF MS) might be used solely or together with other proteomic tools or molecular techniques for the identification and characterization of bacteria (De Giglio et al., 2023; Dieckmann et al., 2010; Emami et al., 2012; Haider et al., 2023; Hazen et al., 2009; Li et al., 2019; Mugadza et al., 2021; Singhal et al., 2015; Sun et al., 2018). This method has the advantage of generating unique mass spectral fingerprints for bacteria useful for their differentiation at the sub‐species level (Dieckmann et al., 2010; Emami et al., 2012; Erler, 2015; Hazen et al., 2009).…”

The protein profiles of bacteria are useful markers in their identification. In this study, we examined the influence of environmental settings on the protein profiles of culturable bacteria using matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization‐time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI–TOF MS). We compared the protein profiles of bacteria collected from geographically distinct port environments (Kolkata, a freshwater port, and Kandla, a marine port) from India. The results indicated that bacterial species were distinctly different between the two ports, except for a few bacteria, that were common, such as Bacillus cereus, Enterobacter cloacae, Micrococcus luteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. putida, P. stutzeri, P. mosselii and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Mass spectra of these common bacterial species, a few pathogenic among them, differed in their protein profiles and relative intensity of peaks. These variations point out that environmental settings/factors have a significant role in the protein expression and can result in differentiated virulence of pathogens. Identifying these risk factors is crucial in developing appropriate environmental port management practices.
