Microbiological and saprobiological characteristics of river Moraca and Skadar lake for period of 2004/2005 are done at localities: Pernica, Moraca estuary and Vranjina (Skadar Lake). The objective of the research is to establish quality of water of these aquatic ecosystems based on microbiological and saprobiological analyses, as well as, to show need for protection of these water ecosystems from permanent contaminations, mainly by sewage should be pointed out. Saprobiological index is determined based on Gulyas Pal, and Pantle Buck is used to determine saprobiological level.

During the 2004 research of Moraca river water quality was conducted onto six localities: Pernica, Zlatica, Gradska plaza, Kolektor, Grbavci and Vukovci. Physical, chemical and microbiological properties were analyzed. Physical and chemical analyses done were: water temperature, air temperature, pH, electro-conductivity, KMnO4 consumption, dissolved O2 and BCO5 (biological consumption of oxygen in five days). Microbiological analysis included determination of the total number of aerobic mezophyll bacteria, oligotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria, as well as the most probable number of colliform bacteria. In addition to distribution and population dynamics, identification of the bacteria was also done. Microbiological water analysis were performed using standard bacteriologic methods and identification of the bacteria using INVIC or, when needed, using API diagnostics.
