Determination of gastrointestinal pathogens in Tunceli biological wastewater treatment plant

Öz

In this study, gastrointestinal pathogens (bacterial gastroenteritis, viral gastroenteritis, enteroviruses, human parechovirus, adenoviruses, stool parasites) in Tunceli biological wastewater treatment plant (TBAAT) are investigated. The gastrointestinal pathogen analyzes are done in influent and effluent of TBAAT. According to obtained results, enterohemorragic/verotoxin-producing Esherichia coli, salmonella, noroviruses G1, noroviruses G2, astroviruses, adenoviruses, and Giardia lamblia agents were detected in influents of the TBAAT. Although these agents are present in the influents of TBAAT, bacterial agents causing gastroenteritis, enteroviruses, parechoviruses, adenoviruses (EPA) and stool parasites are not detected in effluents of the TBAAT. Noroviruses G2, astroviruses and adenoviruses from viral agents were detected as positive (+) in effluents of the TBAAT.

Tunceli biyolojik atıksu arıtma tesisinde gastrointestinal patojenlerin belirlenmesi

Öz

Bu çalışmada, Tunceli ili biyolojik atıksu arıtma tesisinde (TBAAT) gastrointestinal patojenler (bakteriyel gastroenterit, viral gastroenterit, enterovirüsler, insan parekovirüsleri, adenovirüsler, dışkı parazitleri) incelenmiştir. TBAAT 'nin giriş ve çıkış suyunda gastrointestinal patojen analizleri yapılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre TBAAT 'nin giriş suyunda enterohemorajik/verotoksin üreten Esherichia coli, salmonella, norovirüsler G1, norovirüsler G2, astrovirüsler, adenovirüsler ve Giardia lamblia ajanları tespit edilmiştir. Bu ajanlar TBAAT 'nin giriş suyunda mevcut olmasına rağmen, TBAAT 'nin çıkış suyunda gastroenterite sebep bakteriyel etkenler, enterovirüsler, parekovirüsler, adenovirüsler (EPA) ve dışkı parazitleri tespit edilmemiştir. TBAAT çıkış suyunda viral ajanlardan olan norovirüsler G2, astrovirüsler ve adenovirüsler pozitif (+) olarak tespit edilmiştir.
