Abstract

Introduction: There is a direct relationship between the prevalence of some parasitic diseases and the presence of those etiologic agents in water. There are possible contamination of water resources to PARASITES, due to increasing the groundwater level and environmental conditions. The purpose of this research was to determine the contamination rate of WELLS DRINKING WATER to PARASITES in MAZANDARAN Province north of Iran, during 2002-2003.Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 989 water samples which randomly taken based on the population of towns and number of health centers from 12 cities of MAZANDARAN province, and transferred to the laboratory in sterile containers were estimated. Water samples were then filtered and analyzed according to the WHO guidelines. Direct method and logol staining procedure were used to identify the PARASITES. If cryptosporidium was seen, floatation (sheather's sugar) and modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining method were performed. PARASITES count was undertaken using McMaster counting slide (0.3 ml).Results: 197 out of 989 water samples were contaminated with different PARASITES. From 197 contaminated samples, 20 different types of PARASITES were separated of which 53 (26.9%) were pathogenic, 100 (50.8%) non pathogenic, and 44 non-infective stages of PARASITES.Conclusions: In most of MAZANDARAN areas, DRINKING WATER contamination to PARASITES is more than 15 percent. The results of other researchers in different populations, confirmed the prevalence increasing of intestinal PARASITES. According to the results and considering the direct correlation between safe water and human health, proper implementation of providing hygienic DRINKING WATER should be enforced.
