Abstract: The purpose of the work was to verify and demonstrate, on a pilot plant scale, the applicability of the Slovak clinoptilolite as a natural selective ion exchanger for the removal of ammonia from tannery wastewaters. During the pilot treatment experiments at an industrial wastewater treatment plant of the Shoe Manufacturing Industry Svit-Otrokovice, about 260 m³ of wastewaters were treated. The regeneration process was carried out with 2% NaCl (pH = 9, NaOH) and the eluate was distributed into 3 fractions. Only the most concentrated ammonia fraction was stripped in the renovation step. The economic efficiency of the studied method was compared with the biological nitrification-denitrification method.

Abstract: Antisera were raised with heat-killed vaccines prepared from 25 Aeromonas hydrophila strains, 4 A. sobria strains and one A. caviae strain. Twenty-seven of these 30 antisera gave high titers when tested in the microtiter tray agglutination (MTA) test with their homologous antigen heated at 100°C for 30 min. Three O antisera gave low titers in the MTA test but reacted to high titers in the haemagglutination (HA) test with conserved sheep red blood cells coated with alkali-treated heat extract. All 27 antisera showing high titers in the MTA test, showed even higher titers in the HA test. Therefore, the HA technique was employed to type 306 strains isolated from surface and drinking water, from food samples and from faeces of human patients with diarrhea. of 155 A. hydrophila strains 21 (14%) could not be typed. For A. sobria and A. caviae, the percentage of untypable strains was 46% and 68% respectively. Many A. sobria and A. caviae strains reacted to titer in A. hydrophila O antisera. A limited number of strains reacted to titer in more than one specific O antiserum. Immunoelectrophoretic studies indicated that the O antigen is often represented by more than one precipitation line and that true K antigens occur in Aeromonas.

Abstract: A survey of malignant tumours involving the digestive organs and the bladder registered in 7 districts and 5 towns in the County of Borsod was conducted. Between 1967 and, (1983), the number of registered cases of tumours involving the digestive organs (including liver) was 3558 (incidence rate 691.6%) and that of bladder tumours amounted to 293 (incidence rate 56.9%). Males were more frequently affected than females with these types of tumour. Among the lesions of the digestive tract gastric tumours prevailed followed by tumours of the colon and of the rectum. The nitrate and nitrite contents of the drinking water consumed by the patients were also investigated. The average values were compared with the tumour incidence rate of the respective area. In most areas, the trend coincided i.e. lower morbidity was associated with lower average nitrate values. The data available revealed that about two-thirds (64.0%) of tumour cases affecting the digestive organs were living in areas where the nitrate concentration of drinking water was over 100 mg l^-1. Analyses based on the various types of disease yielded similar results. The incidence of tumours in patients, drinking water with a nitrate content of 0 to 100 mg l^-1 was 34.1 to 41.1%. The possible inter relationships between these figures are analysed and the implementation of additional epidemiologic and pathophysiologic investigations are suggested.

Abstract: In recent years, a number of sporadic or community infections of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis were observed in several mountain area of Okayama Prefecture, Japan. Epidemiological observations strongly suggested that drinking water in those areas, i.e. non-chlorinated water from mountain stream or wells, must be the source of the infection, so we examined the waters from the epidemic areas to detect the organisms. The examinations revealed the germs in the waters, the contamination rate of water from the northern areas is higher than that from the southern urban regions. The isolation procedures for the germs were also studied and improved. The media added with blood or hemin proved to be better for isolation of the organism.

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie Mikrobiologie und Hygiene Serie B-Umwelthygiene Krankenhaushygiene Arbeitshygiene Praventive Medizin, 185 (6), 527-533.

Abstract: A total of 416 Yersinia strains from well water and drinking water plants in the Federal Republic of Germany was analysed at the National Reference Centre for Salmonella, Hamburg, in the period 1982 to 1987. of these, 341 (82%) strains were Y. enterocolitica, 46 (11%) strains were Y. intermedia, 24 (5.8%) strains were Y. frederiksenii, and 5 strains (1.2%) Y. kristensenii. The serogroups O (3), O (9), and O (5), 27 which in Central Europe are associated with human disease, were not isolated. Seventy-two strains from treated drinking water were characterized by a newly identified combination of O-antigenic factors, i.e. O (6), 30, 47, and 130 strains possessed a hitherto unknown O-antigen, O (5)9. These strains were furthermore associated with a new fimbrial antigen [K3] and a new flagellar antigen [x]. Thus, the majority of Y. enterocolitica strains cultured from drinking water plants was characterized by a rather uniform antigenic pattern which was markedly different from strains isolated from patients. Virulence tests (calcium dependency and autoagglutination at 37°C) were negative in all instances. It is concluded from the results of this study that Yersinia isolates from drinking water plants are of environmental origin without pathogenic importance.

Abstract: Three outbreaks of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection during 1982 to 1984 in Okayama Prefecture, Japan are described. In outbreak A, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis a causal organism was detected in 16 patients (serotype 5A). The latent period of the infection was 2 to 20 days estimating, from time of ingesting food suspected of being contaminated and onset of the illness. Outbreak B and C occurred in remote mountain areas. In outbreak B, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis bacilli were detected in the feces of 35 out of 276 people (serotype 4B in 34 stools, 2C and 4B in one stool). In outbreak C, 12 children became sick, one of the 4 patients whose stools were examined, showed an organism belonging to serotype 4B. The inhabitants in the area of outbreak B and C took unchlorinated mountain stream and well water for drinking. After the outbreak B and C, we examined water and wild animals fecea in these areas for the bacilli. As a result, they were detected in 3 out of 51 water samples (serotype 4A in one, 6 in 2 samples) and 2 out of 57 wild animal fecal samples (serotype 2C in 2 samples) in B area, and 4 out of 33 water samples (serotype 4A in 2, 4B in 2 samples) in C area.
