[Environmental monitoring in the foci of parasitic diseases in the town of Belgorod-Dnestrovsk, Odessa region]. / Monitoring za okruzhaiushchei sredoi v ochagakh parazitarnykh boleznei v gorode Belgorod-Dnestrovskom Odesskoi oblasti.

The paper shows a role of environmental objects in the formation of parasitic diseases in Belgorod-Dnestrovsk, developmental changes in intestinal parasitic cenoses in children from closed institutions. To attract parasitologists to the diagnosis of acute intestinal infections of unspecified etiology increases the percent (49.5 to 82.0) of positive results. The findings show what environmental objects should be monitored in the sanitary and parasitological contexts: soil, vegetables, greens in helminthiasis; utensils in preschool children' establishments in contact helminthiasis; drinking water, vegetables, greens in giardiasis.

In some CIS areas (Khabarovsk Territory, Moscow, Grodno, Odessa, Astrakhan, and Kzyl-Orda provinces), sewage, animal sewage, and sewage from the populated areas (82.3% of the samples tested), water in the surface reservoirs, sources of potable water supply (54.0%), and potable water (6.5%) were shown to contain viable agents of intestinal parasitic diseases, such as cysts of Lamblia and Balandia, eggs of ascarides, Trichuris trichiura, Diphyllobothrium, oncospheres of Taenia, etc.). This should be borne in mind in planning and implementing measures for sanitary protection of surface and underground potable water supply sources, recreational [correction of recreative] areas, for prevention of helminthiases and intestinal protozoan [correction of Proteus] infections.
