Zdravstvena kontrola prehrane i provođenja higijenskih mjera u dječjim vrtićima u Šibensko-kninskoj županiji u 2006. godini

Pravilna prehrana zadovoljava potrebe organizma za energijom i potrebnom količinom prehrambenih i zaštitnih tvari koje su neophodne za održavanje fizioloških funkcija organizma i zdravlja. Djeca tijekom svog djetinjstva istražuju svoj odnos prema hrani i stječu određene prehrambene navike stoga je važno pravilno ih usmjeravati. Zbog njihovog ubrzanog rasta i razvoja potrebna im je raznovrsna prehrana koja može zadovoljiti njihove povećane potrebe za energijom i hranjivim tvarima. Na području Šibensko- kninske županije u 2006. godini predškolskim odgojem obuhvaćeno je 2426 djece od čega cjelodnevne obroke konzumira 1734 djece

The efficiency of disinfection and the microbiological quality of drinking water in the town of Šibenik

Kakvoća vode za ljudsku potrošnju u vodoopskrbnom sustavu uvjetovana je nizom čimbenika, a prije svega kakvoćom vode na mjestu zahvaćanja u prirodi (arteški bunar, jezero, vodotok), procesu prerade te sanitarno-tehničkim i higijenskim uvjetima u vodoopskrbnim objektima i pratećoj infrastrukturi. Zdravstveno ispravnom vodom za ljudsku potrošnju smatra se voda koja: (i) ne sadrži mikroorganizme, parazite i njihove razvojne oblike u broju koji predstavlja opasnost za zdravlje ljudi, (ii) ne sadrži štetne tvari u koncentracijama koje same ili zajedno s drugim tvarima predstavljaju opasnost za zdravlje ljudi, (iii) ima vrijednosti parametara zdravstvene ispravnosti vode za ljudsku potrošnju u skladu s odredbama Zakona o vodi za ljudsku potrošnju (MZ HR, NN 56/13, 65/15, 104/17) i Pravilnika o parametrima sukladnosti i metodama analize vode za ljudsku potrošnju (MZ HR, NN 125/13, 141/13, 128/15). Cilj ovog rada bio je utvrditi učinkovitost dezinfekcije i mikrobiološku kakvoću vode za ljudsku potrošnju koja se putem vodoopskrbnog sustava Jaruga isporučuje stanovnicima grada Šibenika. Analizirani su podaci o koncentraciji slobodnog rezidualnog klora te pojavnosti mikrobioloških parametara (broj kolonija na 22 °C i 37 °C, ukupni koliformi, Escherichia Coli, Closridium Perfringens, Pseudomonas aeruginosa i enterokoki) tijekom petogodišnjeg razdoblja (2011. - 2015.). Grupiranjem pojedinih podataka, ovisno o dijelu godine, utvrdila se i učinkovitost dezinfekcije vode o godišnjem dobu s obzirom da se voda koja se isporučuje stanovnicima grada Šibenika zahvaća iz podzemnih izvora, a koji su, uslijed geološkog sastava tla, podložni utjecaju padalina.Quality of drinking water is influenced by many factors, primarily by the source (well, lake, river), processing and sanitary conditions in water-supply system and infrastructure. Safe drinking water (a) is free of presence of mycroorganisms, parasites and their developmental forms in numbers that pose a risk for human health, (b) is free of harmful compounds in concentrations that individually or in combination pose a risk for human health, (c) i sin accordance with parameters of quality defined by Croatian laws (MZ HR, NN 56/13, 65/15, 104/17) and bylaws (MZ HR, NN 125/13, 141/13, 128/15). The aim of this research was to evaluate efficiency of disinfection and microbial quality of drinking water supplied by water-supply system Jaruga to Šibenik residents. The data on free and bound chlorine and microbial parameters (colony count at 22 °C and 37 °C, total coliforms, Escherichia coli, Closridium perfringens, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, enterococci) collected during 5-year period (2011-2015) were analysed. Disinfection efficiency was established by grouping of values, depending on season, since water is collected from the wells that are influenced by rainfall due to geological properties

Performance characteristics of the temperature-modified ISO 9308-1 method for the enumeration of Escherichia coli in marine and inland bathing waters

This study defines performance characteristics of the temperature- modified ISO 9308-1 method for E. coli enumeration in bathing water. After a 4-hour resuscitation period at 36 ± 2 °C, the incubation temperature was changed to 44 ± 0.5 °C. Elevated incubation temperature significantly suppressed the growth of thermo- intolerant bacteria, and enhanced the selectivity of Chromogenic Coliform Agar (CCA) up to 49.5% for inland and up to 66.0% for coastal water. Consequently, most of the selectivity- related performance characteristics are improved. Relative recovery was determined by comparing an alternative method against the reference, ISO 9308- 1:2014 method, following the criteria set out in ISO 17994:2014. Temperature modification did not significantly alter the results and the methods were evaluated as “not different” for both, coastal and inland waters. Chromogenic Coliform Agar was assessed as a suitable medium for reliable E. coli enumeration in bathing water when incubated for 17–19 h at 44 ± 0.5 °C after the 4–5 h resuscitation period at 36 ± 2 °C
