Background; Providing Safe drinking water is a prime concerninany community. This analytical study was carried out to evaluate the microbial quality of drinking water in rural areas of northeastern Iran. Methods;The water microbial quality was determined in all villages (a population of 53047 people), in 3 rounds and based on 3 measurements, i.e. Total Coliform, Fecal Coliform, and Heterotro...

Abstract Escherichia coli and coliform are frequently detected in groundwater, their abundant presence indicates that the groundwater has been contaminated. Several variables, including population density well construction, contribute to growth of E. coliforms groundwater. This is caused by domestic waste as a source pollution being close clean water sources (wells). study aims map distribution...

The study used existing indicator bacterial data and a number of physicochemical parameters that can be measured instantaneously to determine if a decision tree approach, especially classification and regression tree, could be used to predict bacterial concentrations in timely manner for beach closure management. Each indicator bacteria showed different tree structures and each had its own sign...

Background. The World Health Organization estimates that about 80% of the world's population uses herbal medicine to treat various illnesses as means of primary healthcare. However, during preparation, herbal plants may be exposed to contamination by potential pathogens, and this may lead to infections. The aim of this study was to determine bacterial contamination of herbal medicinal products ...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of mint powder added to diet with different levels of wheat on performance, microbial population and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens. a total of 384 ross male broiler chickens were used in a completely randomized design in a 4×2 factorial arrangement with 4 replicates (floor pens) and 12 birds each. birds were fed diets contain...
