Fecal contamination of drinking water is a major health problem which accounts for many cases of diarrhea mainly in infants and foreigners.
This contamination is a complex interaction of many parameters.
Antibiotic resistance among bacterial isolates complicates the problem.
The study was done to identify fecal contamination of drinking water by Diarrheagenic Antibiotic-Resistant Escherichia coli in Zagazig city and to trace reasons for such contamination, three hundred potable water samples were investigated for E.
coli existence.
Locations of E.
coli positive samples were investigated in relation to population density, water source, and type of water pipe.
Sixteen E.
coli strains were isolated.
Antibiotic sensitivity was done and enterotoxigenic, enteropathogenic, and enterohaemorrhagic virulence genes were investigated by PCR.
Probability of fecal contamination correlated with higher population density, with increased distance from Zagazig water plant, and with asbestos cement water pipes.
Resistance to at least one antimicrobial drug was found in all isolates.
Virulence genes were detected in a rate of 26.27%, 13.13%, 20%, 6.67%, and 33.33% for LT, ST, stx1, stx2, and eae genes, respectively.
This relatively high frequency of fecal contamination points towards the high risk of developing diarrhea by antibiotic resistant DEC in low socioeconomic communities particularly with old fashion distribution systems.
