Human impact on the microbiological water quality of the rivers

Abstract: Microbiological contamination is an important water-quality problem worldwide. Human impact on this category of contamination is significant and several human-related activities, and also the population explosion, have affected and are still affecting dramatically the aquatic environment. Extensive industrialization and agriculture have led to increased pollution and hydromorphological changes in many river basins. The Danube river is one of the most affected by these changes where human involvement is undenia… Show more

“…This is due to the fact their population is proportional to the amount of feces entering into environment (Páll et al, 2013 (Gerba, 2009). Generally, these bacteria are not pathogenic, but among them opportunistic pathogens which may have impacts on human health, especially in immunocompromised populations, children and old persons consuming soiled water, can be found (Bartram et al, 2003).…”

“…Escherichia coli was isolated from several sampling points of stream, is used as a specific indicator of fecal contamination in tropical and temperate regions (Páll et al, 2013). This species is considered one of the main causes of diarrhea in adults and children in developing countries, infection most often occurring through contact with contaminated water (Walker et al, 2007;Isidean et al, 2011) and is an important cause of urinary tract and wound infections and pneumonia in immunosuppressed hospitalized patients, and meningitis in newborn children (Wijetunge et al, 2015;Martelius et al, 2016).…”

“…Ancak rutin su analizleri ve hastalardan alınan örneklerinde tanı yöntemlerine bakıldığında enfeksiyondan şüphelenilmediği sürece özel işlemlerin yapılmadığı bilinmektedir. Amerika ve İngiltere'de olduğu gibi ülkemizde bildirimi zorunlu bir hastalık olan cryptosporidiosisin ayırıcı tanısına hem hasta hem de su örneklerinde önem verilmesi gerekmektedir (9,14,17,18).…”

“…Schistosomiasis gibi kötü hijyene ve sanitasyon önlemlerine dikkat edilmeyen durumlarda karşımıza çıkabilen pek çok tropikal hastalık, özellikle dünyanın az gelişmiş bölgelerinde ciddi bir sorun olarak devam etmektedir. Öyle ki, güvenli suya ulaşımın kolaylaştırıl-ması ile dünya çapında su kökenli hastalıkların yükünün %9.1 ve su kaynaklı hastalıklara bağlı ölümlerin de %6.3 azalacağı öngörülmektedir (16,17,18).…”
