Introduction: Indoor public Swimming pools have many lovings in all seasons. Tire water- in swimming
pools can he a good carrier for transmission of fungal, parasitical, and bacterial diseases.
Materials and Methods: In this study parastic and fungal contaminations of four covered active swimming pools in URMIA city within one year in four seasons were evaluated. Samples were collected by a handle plastic pump. All samples were, collected within 2 hours and sent them to laboratory. from the parasitic contamination point of view, 8 sample of 200 ml and 8 samples of 1000 ml in each month were collected from the Surface and deep parts of pools. The related examinations were achieved by the Membrane filter and sedimentation, feeds II Method. For the assessing of fungal contamination, 8 samples of 200 ml in a sterilized bottle were collected every month from each swimming pool, then, the
method of filtration and cultivation samples were used. In addition to the above in/ormation, some parameters such us; temperature, Residual chlorine. PH, Turbidity and the number of swimmers were studied. R e s u l t s : The results of. this research indicated that, the average temperature, PH, residual chlorine and turbidity of water were respectively, 29.9co, 0.6, ppln, and 0.8 NTU. The most common fungi recovered were as follows; candida (22.9%) Rhizopus (4.16%), Aspergillus (56.25%). Parasitic examinations showed that among the colleted samples; 47 Parasitic contamination cases were identified and the most of them were; Entamoeba-coli 13 cases (27.6%), Hymenolepis-nano 1 case (2.2%), Oxyur 2 cases (4.2%) and , finaly 31 cases (65.9%) larva from the family of Rh abditida and Nematodes.
Discussion: With respect to above results which obtain in this research, we can justify that, all swimming pools can be contaminated by types of fungus and parasitic). For the prevention from fungal contamination of swimming pools, bathing of feet and washing of body with soap can be useful before enterance to swimming. However, attention to the standard o/ chlorine residual as well as pervonal and environmental health can be effective in the reduction swimming.s ofcontarmnation
