“…Our another a study performed for different locations at same time in Kilis observed fecal streptococ contamination as 11 EMS/100 mL (Mercimek Takci and Toplar 2023). Although our fecal coliform contamination rates were lower than those shown by Yalım et al (2020) and Akkan et al (2019), our study clearly emphasized the discharge of household and industrial wastewater systems into the surface water without control.…”

The surface waters contaminated with coliform bacteria having antibiotic and heavy metal resistance have become an increasing public health risk. For this reason, it is aimed to detect the bacterial quality, the frequency of antibiotics, heavy metal resistance, and bioindicator bacteria in surface water sources taken from Kilis. The resistance profile of sixteen bacteria species belonging to class Gammaproteobacteria to standard antibiotics and heavy metal salts was investigated using Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion techniques. The various physicochemical parameters such as total dissolved solids (TDS), electrical conductivity (EC), pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen amount, and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) of samples were also examined. The total coliform load was recorded as˃1100 (MPN)/100 mL and calculated comparatively lower values (53(MPN)/100 mL) of fecal contamination for both stations. A high level of resistance to clindamycin in a total of 16 strains was observed. Ampicillin (56.25%), cefotaxime (37.5%), and ceftazidime (31.25%) followed them. The trends in heavy metal resistance of isolates increased in the order of Cd2+< Pb2+

“…Aydın (2017) reported that percentages of TC, FC, EC and FS in the sixty surface water samples collected from Boğacık Creek were 98.33%, 91.67%, 83.33% and 96.67% respectively. In a similar study conducted in Yağlıdere Creek, the quality variables were detected as 45% for TC, as 71.66% for FC and 56.66% for FS (Akkan et al, 2019). In addition, the researchers pointed out that E. coli was present in the samples collected at any time of the year and the bacteriological flora was damaged.…”

The aim of this study is to investigate the bacteriological pollution level of Gelevera Creek (Giresun). For this purpose, a total of 48 water samples was collected from 4 different stations between April 2017-March 2018 and bacteriological parameters were analyzed using the standard methods. Bacteriologically, total count of bacteria at 37°C from water and sediment samples, and count of total coliform bacteria (TC), fecal coliform bacteria (FC), fecal streptococci (FS), E. coli from surface water samples were determined. The percentages for TC, FC and FS presence in surface water samples were 100%, 100%, 93.75% respectively. In addition, E. coli were determined in collected samples for almost all seasons. The levels of total coliform, fecal coliform and fecal streptococci exceeded the values recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) and values that are set according to Turkish standards. This issue is likely to cause serious and irreparable damage to the streamline. As a result, it was determined that surface water samples collected from Gelevera Creek are bacteriological polluted. Hence in this study, regular monitoring and assessment by using appropriate methods to reduce the bacterial load in the Gelevera Creek Basin are recommended.

This study was to evaluate the level of contamination of surface waters by coliform bacteria and Escherichia coli, as well as to detect the fecal pollution and the antibiotic resistance patterns of E. coli strains from recovered Asi (Orentes) River in the southern region of Turkey. Total and fecal coliform results were revealed as ˃1100 MPN/100 mL and 1100 MPN/100 mL for two stations, respectively. A total of 10 E. coli isolates were screened for antibiotic susceptibility by Kirby Bauer method. Resistance to cefotaxime, tobramycin, streptomycin, trimethoprim, cefepime, cefazolin, and ampicillin was determined in 20%, 20%, 40%, 20%, 20%, 20%, and 40%, respectively. These findings point out a widespread distribution of E. coli strains produced antibiotic resistance genes in the surface waters in the southern region of Turkey, suggesting an aquatic reservoir for resistance genes. Multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) rates of %30 of E. coli isolates were greater than 0.200. This high index indicates exceeding the permissible water quality limits for human use and consumption and is the primary source of contamination in the discharges from domestic, agricultural, and urban.
