Summary
A major water supply utilized in the Lambayeque region are acequias. Acequias are irrigation canals that are utilized by the agriculture industry for the cultivation of consumables. Utilization of contaminated water to irrigate consumables can lead to foodborne illnesses. Contamination studies on the acequias in the Lambayeque region have not been performed to date. The purpose of this study is to test contamination of acequias in 9 districts in Lambayeque and determine if a difference in infection rates exists in districts with contaminated acequias vs. districts without contaminated acequias for the following diseases: H. pylori, Adenovirus, Rotavirus.
