Bacteriological analysis that some of the default pathological bacteria, including TC (Total bacterial count), FCB (faecal coliform bacteria), MPN (coliform bacteria) and FS (faecal streptococcus) can evidence to indicate of pollution. The results showed that most of the water samples examined pathological contain bacteria which indicates that the water is unfit for human consumption and the waters as basal (more hydrogen than No. 7). There was a high salinity more than the permissible limits for human consumption and even to irrigate crops, and the same case for dissolve oxygen which exceeded are other limits as drinking water.展开更多

The comparison of heterotrophs and total coliforms level in sampling are the essence of this research. The object of this study is done in four sampling areas of Durres's Harbour basin. In order to compare the level of water microbiologic pollution in four areas of Durres's Harbour basin, control area is also studied which is a beach area near the Harbour named Apollonia Beach. The sampling areas were: Ferry Terminal (FT), Fishery Harbor (FH), East Zone (EZ), Fuel Quay (FQ) and Apollonia Beach (AB), respectively. The period of sample-taking was July-October 2008. The strategy used for this purpose consisted in water insemination with coverage method by means of Petri's plates according to respective dilutions in culture media Plate Count Agar (PCA) for heterotrophs and MacConkey for total coliforms. The number of colonies that are formed determines the number of cells at the moment of water insemination, the number of heterotrophs in culture media PCA, respectively. The number of pink and red colonies that were formed determines the number of cells at the moment of water insemination, the number of total coliforms in culture media MacConkey, respectively. The measure ofheterotrophic bacteria and total coliforms used is Colony-Forming Units (CFU)/100 mL seawater. (AB) is within European standards. The richest area with heterotrophs is (FH), which confirms the fact that it is the most polluted microbiologic area in the Harbour basin of Durres. The richest area with total coliforms is (FT). The poorest area with heterotrophs and total coliforms is (FQ).展开更多

A prospective study carried on samples of Gouda cheese waxed by local bee wax with different percentage of local propolis, then cheese was ripened for three months at l0℃. It was found that addition (10%, 20% and 30%) of propolis effects of total bacterial count, coliform count, molds and yeasts count, 30% of propolis had a higher incidence during the period of Gouda cheese which was ripened for three months, then the 20%, but the 10% of propolis had a few microbial effects, compared with control treatments that had a high count of bacterial, coliform, molds and yeasts. This study shows that difference was observed between the total bacterial count of control treatment (0% propolis) with other treatments (10%, 20% and 30% of propolis) after three months of Gouda cheese ripened as well as difference was observed between the total bacterial count of treatment (30% propolis) and other treatments. However, there was no difference between the treatments 10% and 20%, the study shows that the coliform count decrease by increase of propolis percent compared with the control treatment which had increase of coliform count during ripened period, and it had a high significant difference in the count of coilform to different treatments, but a considerable difference was not observed between coliform count in the second treatment (20% propolis) and that the third treatment (30%) propolis after three months of ripening, the third treatment had a high difference in growth inhibition of molds and yeasts counts compared with the other treatments after three months of ripened Gouda cheese. It could be observed in general that effects of propolis especially the third treatment was a great on the mold and yeasts which is usually growth on the surface of the cheese.展开更多
