| Abstract | ||
| Microbial quality for water and sediments of Southern Iraqi Marshlands has been investigated after rehabilitation during 2003. The study was conducted during the period 2003-2004 in which both bacteria and fungi were detected. The study revealed that for bacteria detection it was found that some studied locations were polluted with presumptive Salmonella and Shigella while the presence of presumptive Staphylococcus indicated an evidence of possible food poisoning. Different fungal species including imperfect fungi, few species of Ascomycetes, and some species of the family Saprolegniaceae have been isolated from certain sites in marshes especially in spring, while dermatophytes were not detected in all sites. It is concluded that water is unsuitable for drinking or agricultural purposes. | ||
