The present study was undertaken to gain insight into the sources of faecal contamination of infants in rural Bengal. It was carried out in three villages near Calcutta, India, from June 1993 to August 1995 among 148 infants and their mothers. Escherichia coli was used as an indicator of faecal pollution. A total of 725 samples, including hand rinsings of children and mothers, feeding utensils and leftover food were examined. The total isolation rate of faecal E. coli was 30%. The isolation rates from hands of children and mothers were 17% and 40% respectively. The germs from 30% of utensils and 59% of leftover food and drinks were recovered further. The study highlights the precarious hygiene in rural Bengal.
本研究旨在深入了解孟加拉农村地区婴儿粪便污染的来源。该研究于1993年6月至1995年8月在印度加尔各答附近的三个村庄对148名婴儿及其母亲进行。大肠杆菌被用作粪便污染的指标。共检测了725个样本，包括儿童和母亲的洗手冲洗液、餐具和剩饭。粪便大肠杆菌的总分离率为30%。儿童手部和母亲手部的分离率分别为17%和40%。从30%的餐具以及59%的剩饭和饮料中进一步检出了病菌。该研究突出了孟加拉农村地区卫生状况的不稳定。
