Sánchez-Castillo, L.R.M Olazarán-Santibáñez, F.E. Aguirre-Guzmán, G. Analysis Cadmium Copper Lead Microorganisms Pollution Water Análisis Cadmio Cobre Contaminación Metales Microorganismos Plomo Río Tamaulipas The Corona River in Tamaulipas, Mexico, originating from the San Pedro Hill in the Sierra Madre Oriental, serves as a crucial water source for the region and flows into the Vicente Guerrero Dam. Given its significance, assessing the river’s water quality is imperative. Rivers are often vulnerable to contamination from organic and inorganic discharges, which can degrade water quality. This study conducted a comprehensive assessment across eleven sampling stations along the Corona River, analyzing fecal coliforms (43-2400 Most Probable Number or MPN) and heavy metals [cadmium (0.004-0.037), copper (0.0085-0.0595), and lead (0.142-0.227 mg L-1)]. Elevated levels of fecal coliforms and heavy metals were detected at various stations, with contamination progressively increasing towards the river’s confluence with the Vicente Guerrero Dam. These findings indicate that the water quality may deteriorate to levels unsuitable for consumption. The data presented are crucial for informing relevant authorities on the necessity of implementing effective management, prevention, control, and treatment strategies to ensure that the river water meets safety standards for various uses, including consumption, recreation, agriculture, and livestock. El río Corona en Tamaulipas, México, que se origina en el Cerro San Pedro de la Sierra Madre Oriental, es una fuente de agua crucial para la región y desemboca en la presa Vicente Guerrero. Dada su importancia, es fundamental evaluar la calidad del agua del río. Los ríos son a menudo vulnerables a la contaminación por descargas de desechos orgánicos e inorgánicos, lo que puede degradar la calidad del agua. Este estudio realizó una evaluación integral en once estaciones de muestreo a lo largo del río Corona, analizando coliformes fecales (43-2400 Numero Más Probable o NMP) y metales pesados [cadmio (0,004-0,037), cobre (0,0085-0,0595), plomo (0,142-0,227 mg L-1)]. Se detectaron niveles elevados de coliformes fecales y metales pesados en varias estaciones, con una contaminación que aumenta progresivamente hacia la confluencia del río con la presa Vicente Guerrero. Estos hallazgos indican que la calidad del agua puede deteriorarse a niveles no aptos para el consumo. Los datos presentados son cruciales para informar a las autoridades pertinentes sobre la necesidad de implementar estrategias efectivas de gestión, prevención, control y tratamiento, con el fin de garantizar que el agua del río cumpla con los estándares de seguridad para diversos usos, incluyendo el consumo, la recreación, la agricultura y la ganadería.
