Classification of the pelagic and benthic compartments of Kainji ecosystem using types and loads of the bacterial flora

Pathogens in aquatic environment constitute health hazards to the aquatic lives (e.g. fish) and by extension man that drinks the water and also eat fish that is caught from such polluted aquatic environment. In this study, pelagic and benthic compartments of Kainji Lake were classified using types and loads of bacterial flora. Quantitative analysis of total heterotrophic count (THC) in pelagic samples showed that THC ranges from 2.0 x 101CFU/ml at Mataki to 3.6 x 106 CFU/ml at Musawa. Pelagic sample from Yauri market showed high bacterial count (3.5 x 106 CFU/ml). Total coliform count (TCC) at Yauri market and Musawa were also very high (3.0 x 104 CFU/ml and 2.1 x 105 CFU/ml respectively. Total heterotrophic count from benthic samples ranges from 4.2 x 102 CFU/g at Kasabo to 3.3 x 107 CFU/g at Yauri market and total coliform count ranges from 1.2 x 101 CFU/g at Garafini island to 3.3 x 103 CFU/g at Yauri market. Total coliform count from the benthic sample was generally lower than that from pelagic samples. Qualitative analysis revealed the presence of Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, Aeromonas hydrophila, Vibrio cholera from pelagic samples.
