由于微生物容易分散，表现出生理多样性，并能耐受极端条件，因此它们无处不在，可能会污染并在水中生长。家庭供水中存在的水性肠道病原体（细菌、病毒和原生动物）对人类健康构成潜在的重大风险。尽管水传播疾病的大规模爆发相对罕见，但有大量证据表明，经常存在于家庭供水中的人类肠道病原体是水传播微生物疾病发病率低的原因。虽然这些疾病很少使健康成年人虚弱超过几小时到几天，但肠道病原体可导致幼儿，老年人或免疫系统受损的人严重疾病，甚至死亡。随着水传播疾病的流行病学正在发生变化，全球公共卫生越来越关注通过社会，经济，进化和生态因素的复杂相互作用而发生的新的和重新出现的传染病。新的微生物病原体已经出现，有些已经在世界范围内传播。水传播疾病的替代检测战略应能显著提高检测和控制致病病原体的能力。在这篇文章中，我们提供了一个概述的知识，水生微生物病原体，它们的检测，以及未来的新方法在控制这些传染性病原体的现状。
Because microorganisms are easily dispersed, display physiological diversity, and tolerate extreme conditions, they are ubiquitous and may contaminate and grow in water. The presence of waterborne enteric pathogens (bacteria, viruses, and protozoa) in domestic water supplies represents a potentially significant human health risk. Even though major outbreaks of waterborne disease are comparatively rare, there is substantial evidence that human enteric pathogens that are frequently present in domestic water supplies are responsible for low-level incidence of waterborne microbial disease. Although these diseases are rarely debilitating to healthy adults for more than a few hours to a few days, enteric pathogens can cause severe illness, even death, for young children, the elderly, or those with compromised immune systems. As the epidemiology of waterborne diseases is changing, there is a growing global public health concern about new and reemerging infectious diseases that are occurring through a complex interaction of social, economic, evolutionary, and ecological factors. New microbial pathogens have emerged, and some have spread worldwide. Alternative testing strategies for waterborne diseases should significantly improve the ability to detect and control the causative pathogenic agents. In this article, we provide an overview of the current state of knowledge of waterborne microbial pathogens, their detection, and the future of new methods in controlling these infectious agents.
