Journal Title: Mintage journal of pharmaceutical and medical sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Aquatic environment is one an important factors to transmitted the pathogens to human. A total 70 of water samples collected from the Tigris River during September 2013 to December 2015. The objective of our study is to isolate the most common pathogenic bacteria from river and was identified according to the IMViC & the selective agars. All the diagnosed genera of bacterial isolates of Tigris River in Baghdad City were among Vibrionaceae & Enterobacteriaceae Families. The results for the three-year were diverse of different genera of microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp, Vibrio cholera, Klebsiella spp, Enterobacter and other. The study also aimed at determination of antibiotic susceptibility/resistance of isolated bacteria. Antibiotics selected were Chloramphenicol, Gentamicin, Tetracycline, Ampicillin, Meropenem, Erythromycin and Nalidixic acid. Many pathogenic bacteria isolates of the river were resistant to antibiotics.The significant results were shortly discussed.
