ABSTRACT:
The present study aims to integrate the benefits of Illumina
microbial sequencing approaches using novel prepared copper oxide
(CuO) nanoparticles for improving water quality monitoring and
management. Our results showed rapid and accurate discovery of novel
different microbial compositions in the collected water samples. The
domestic drains were had pathogenic microbes as viruses, Alpha-, Beta-
Gamma proteobacteria, Bacteroidia, Deinococci, Bacilli also Clostridia
with variety quantitive. The class Pseudomonadales were found to be
higher in quantity in all drains outfall. Viruses, including Enteroviruses
and hepatitis A and E species were found out in high volume of domestic
drains in comparison with the agricultural and industrial drains. On the
other hand, our results showed that decreasing and removing microbial
pathogens using prepared copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) by
quick precipitation method. The highest antibacterial activity was notified
for CuO NPs with the optimum concentration 102 μg/mL were ranged
between 92 to 96% after contact time 24h at 35ᵒC. The shaking during the
treatment gave a positive effect removing with CuO NPs. Concluding
remarks highlighted the potential of nanoparticles and Illumina mix as
accurate, simple method. The study recommended future efforts to apply
this as a robust, rapid and powerful metagenomics technology to detecting
other disease-causing agents of public health concern to update and
control water pollution.
INTRODUCTION
Increasing demands on clean water for many purposes as drinking,
industrial and irrigation purposes, Clean water sources is shorted to meet
increasing of population, increasing industrial demands and other reasons.

water demands. pathogens and hazard chemicals which come from
wastewater had an effects on health (Silva et al., 2009).
Copper (II) oxide is semiconducting material have amonoclinic
structure systems, which having useful physical and chemical properties
as superconductivity at relatively stable, high temperature, photovoltaic
properties, and has antimicrobial effect (Rene et al., 2009). CuO
nanoparticles have different technology applications as catalysis (Zhou
et al., 2006), batteries due to high electrochemical capacity (Anandan et
al., 2012), and gas sensors (Borgohain and Mahamuni, 2002). CuO
nanoparticles synthesized by different methods as sonochemical
technique (Anandan et al., 2012), electrochemical method (Borgohain
and Mahamuni, 2002), high temperature combustion (Chang and Zeng,
2004) and novel quick precipitation method (Zhu et al., 2004).
Removing organic pollutants from sewage water such as nitrogen,
sulfur and carbon was considered a hot issue using specific
microorganisms. bacterial community exists inactivated microbial state.
Many methodologies were used for remediation wastewater of plants
such as culture-dependent and culture-independent. Using various
technologies for sequenced and analyzed structure and framework of
microorganisms as 16S rRNA gene, 454 pyrosequencing, metagenomic
sequencing where this tools used for microbial estimation from different
domestic agricultural drains (Ye et al., 2012; Sanchez et al., 2013; Ye
and Zhang, 2013).
Approach clone library sequencing can give non-accurate results
deep-rooted alignment of planning (Aird et al., 2011; Ye et al., 2012).
Some technologies evaluated Illumina sequencing technology where are
an inventive practice to microbial genome (Albertsen et al., 2006;
Bragg and Tyson, 2014). Several studies were evaluated anaerobic
microbial structure using method 454 pyrosequencing (Wong et al.,
2013; Li et al., 2013; Sundberg et al., 2013).
Illumina sequencing technology is a low-cost and effective method
when compared with 454 pyrosequencing investigate microbial
community structure (Mardis, 2008 and Glenn, 2011) where it has been
used for investigation microbial community from water samples
(Mackelprang et al., 2011), also samples from the ocean (Mason et al.,
2014). Anaerobic digested sludge (Ju et al. 2014). A study has tried to
analyze complete data of microbiome from digested sludge samples
(Yang et al., 2014). fecal indicators pollutants such as Escherichia coli
or enterococci is being founded in the effluent part of wastewater
samples, there are other disease-causing agents, shuch as bacteria and
viruses which may be presented in fecal indicators which transmitted
throw different carriers in environment. Ejection of the disease-causing
agents is important for reutilization of water with measurement of

pathogenic microorganisms in the environment (Varela and
Manaia,2013). Pathogenic bacteria “Mycobacteria” has never been
observed and monitored to be measure for human and animal infection in
wastewater where some researchers have quantified the presence of
Mycobacteria in the drainage and surface water samples and they
reported that Pathogenic bacteria "Mycobacteria" were not expected to be
detected by known parameters. (Radomski et al., 2011). Viruses were
reported to be non-predictable in the polluted water by given parameters
(Savichtcheva and Okabe,2006).
Viruses are dangerous for animals and human health more bacteria,
where they diffused easily (Rosa et al.,2010).
This study is important to analyses and dissect the microbiome
structure from various parts. Using samples from El-Rahawy, Tala, Sabal
drains in Egypt. Detecting concentration of viruses and mycobacteria.
Using metagenomic sequencing technology. Pathogenic microbial
species present of drainage water.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
COLLECTION OF SAMPLES
According to Standard Methods for Examination of Water and
Wastewater water samples the water samples analysis was carried out
(APHA, 2012). Samples of water were collected in clean and sterile
polyethylene plastic bottles. Various drains outfalls along the River Nile
at Rosetta branch were chosen for sample collection and represent the
major sector in Egypt, including El-Rahawy drain (R), Sabal drain (S),
El-Tahreer drain (E), Zawiet El-Bahr drain (Z) and Tala drain (T) for 24
h after every 30 min. Drains mixed from sewage, agricultural and
industrial wastes.
Samples were collected under consistent sampling procedures such
that: presence of ample air space in the bottles (at least 2.5 cm) to
facilitate mixing by shaking, keeping sampling bottles closed until it is to
be filled, avoiding external contamination during sample collection,
avoiding internal contamination of stopper or cap and bottle neck and
filling container without rinsing. All samples collected for either chemical
or bacteriological detection and immediately forwarded to the Central
Laboratory for Environmental Quality Monitoring (CLEQM) National
Water Research Center (NWRC), Cairo, Egypt in an iced cooler.

CONCLUSIONS
The synthesized CuO NPs by a rapid precipitation method in
absence and presence of (TOAB). Using a stabilizer to control
nanoparticles size. CuO NPs was tested to examine their antibacterial
activity using (TC), (FC) and (E. faecalis) bacteria in wastewater
samples. several parameters were evaluated to having the optimum
wastewater disinfection factors, as nanoparticles concentration, and
temperature, contact period, pH value, shaking conditions of wastewater.
High antibacterial activity appeared from CuO-TOAB stabilized NPs
more than without TOAB surfactant. the antibacterial activity of both
CuO NPs has slightly effect by the Contact period, where high activity
of CuO happened in wastewater samples when were treated at 25 ºC and
35 ºC, respectively. Noticed that, decreasing the pH values The
antibacterial activity of CuO increasing.When shaking conditions
increase from 70 and 90% the activity of CuO NPs affect. Positive
bacteria E. fecals more effects than gram negative (TC and FC) by
studied conditions. Using a novel technique using for wastewater.
Including Ilumina sequencing technology is a potential and robust way to
investigate microbial structure. In future we could remove and eliminate
the pathogens from the wastewater treatment process. Illumina
sequencing technology detect disease-causing agents in wastewater.
