摘要：The aim of present study is to determine the load of pathogenic microorganism and possible disease potentials of the water sources to prevent possible disease outbreak for the inhabitants. A total number of 50 water samples were collected from different river/canal bank sources and were subjected to standard microbiological analysis. The result of total heterotrophic bacterial count (cfu/ml) ranged between 21×10⁵ to 16.6×10⁶. Different bacterial isolates were microscopically and biochemically characterized as: Escherichia coli , Staphylococcus spp. , Klebsiella spp. , Streptococcus spp. , and Proteus spp. In 50 water samples, 40(80.0%) samples were positive for Escherichia coli , 35(70.0%) for Staphylococcus spp. , 25(50.0%) for Klebsiella spp. , 25(50.0%) for Streptococcus spp. , and 15(30.0%) for Proteus spp. , respectively. This showed that Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus spp. occurred highest (80% and 70%) in water samples followed by Klebsiella and Streptococcus spp. (50.0%) while the lowest occurrence was recorded by Proteus spp. (30.0%), respectively. The results show that river/canal bank water sources are not free from enteric pathogens and expose users to diseases like dysentery, diarrhoea, skin, soft tissue, respiratory, urinary
