Title: Pathogenic Bacteria Isolated from House Flies and Compared with Pathogenic Bacteria Isolated from Children with Diarrhea
Description:
House flies carry many disease-causing bacteria.
Through this study, we will find the relationship between house flies and bacteria that cause diarrhea in children.
A total of three hundred and fifty flies were collected from (butchers, chicken and fish shops, markets, house and hospitals) and 200 samples were collected from children with diarrhea from each of Shatrah and Nasiriyah Governorate during the research period from July 2022 to January 2023 in Thi-Qar Governorate.
The current study showed that 126 (36.
0 %) of the flies carried bacteria, while 224 (64.
0 %) of them did not contain bacteria.
The current study showed that the percentage of high isolated bacteria was from the internal content of flies (8.

the present study showed the high isolated bacteria were from butcher (4.

spp (13.

When comparing the bacteria present in flies with the bacteria isolated from pediatric patients with diarrhea, these bacteria, the current study showed that the predominant bacteria was Escherichia coli from diarrhea with a percentage of (44.

Staphylococcus aureus in flies followed (25.
