Microbial Ecology and Global Health

This special issue of the International Journal of Microbiology focuses on global health. They
argue that the factors that led to the emergence and reemergence of pathogens highlight an
important role for microbial ecology in the health of human populations. Nowhere on this planet
are issues of microbial and human ecology more important than in large urban slums, they argue.
A review by Abraham traces pathogenic, often drug-resistant microbes from inadequate
sanitation facilities in megapolises through rivers . The analysis makes a case for the need to
change the risk assessment and management system to handle pathogens that are viable yet non-
culturable (VBNC). N. J. Rowan offers a critical review of the feasibility of emerging
technologies for water sanitation and the possible impacts of their by-products on the quality of
water. In the study by S., autochthonous opportunistic pathogens take center stage. A. Sousa and
the survey of the climate of T. From Broman et al. It's Enterovirulent E. For prolonged periods of
time, coli and Salmonella may survive in soils and in association with plants.. Consumption of
fruits and vegetables, which harbor these human pathogens, has already resulted in dozens of
large international outbreaks of gastroenteritis. There has been an explosion in research aimed at
understanding behavior of Salmoneella and enterovirulae outside of their human or animal hosts.
It's like Enterovirulent for prolonged periods of time, E.coli and Salmonella may survive in soils
and in association with plants. Dozens of significant foreign outbreaks of gastroenteritis have
already culminated in the consumption of fruits and vegetables that harbor these human
pathogens. An explosion has occurred in research to understand the behavior of Salmonella and
enterovirulae outside of their behavior. Articles on research by A. A. and Duffit. Ibekwe also
adds to our awareness of the ecology of enterohaemorrhagic E. Coli O157:H7 in water and soil.
A analysis from S. From Schjørring and K. The effect of antibiotics on the human gut-associated
microbiota is discussed by Krogfelt. The emphasis is on the gene transfer of antibiotic resistance
between native gut microbiota and enteric pathogens. Global health influenced the microbiota
that formed this world and also determined the course of human civilizations. Climate change,
population dynamics, development of food, mega-city crowding.
