Study of the Relationship Between Bacteria (Streptococcus) and Azotic Nutrients for Determination of Water Quality in Almina Altigary in Lattakia city


Abstract in English

We used Bacteriological studies to determine the quality of water, through quick methods, simple and sensitive detection of water contaminants, and in particularly bacteria that indicated the health status of water quality. We presented in this study the effect of sewage on distribution nutrients and the Streptococci bacteria. Seven samples were taken during the period 2013 to 2014, at a rate of two cruises per season. Some of these samples were taken in near sewage stations, others, to make a comparison, were taken in distant ones. The study showed an increase in nutrients. These bacteria were linked to a positive relationship with nutrients because the presence of nutrients stimulated bacterial growth.
