Brazil has a sanitation service with greater deficit coverage, this factor, related to water pollution that receives the discharge of effluents untreated, mainly from domestic sources, as the collection and treatment do not exist or are inadequate. Discharging effluents directly into the ground without proper treatment can lead to contamination of water resources, soil and groundwater, according to local characteristics. Amid this reality, the degradation of natural resources on the campus of UFSM, due to increased academic population, has drawn attention of researchers and managers of the institution. There is a considerable extension of plants as weeds very close to launch domestic Campus of the University, such as Typha domingensis, which are responsible for much of retention of microorganisms in waste water releases and the study location does not exist until the when a microbiological control. This work is justified by the importance of analysis of environmental samples such releases and advocate methodologies for proving the presence of helminth eggs and oocysts of protozoa present in the rhizome of these plants. This factor becomes important by the fact that helminths and protozoa are great cause of gastrointestinal diseases and may, depending on habitat conditions, health and age, cause the individual to death. The study area was next to two buildings in the student's home with release of wastewater. The aim of this study was to develop a methodology to verify the presence of helminth eggs and oocysts of protozoa in the rhizosphere of weeds in natural environment, with release of sewage. The study was conducted in two phases, with the first phase analysis of helminth eggs and oocysts of protozoa present in twelve samples of waste water releases through Bailenger method that occurred during a period of three months, with analysis performed weekly. The second phase was to detect the presence of helminth eggs and oocysts of protozoa with a modified methodology in this paper, called Roberts & Wolff, for analysis of the rhizosphere of the rhizome of macrophyte Typha domingensis in 10 specimens of the plant, also with an approximate time of analysis of three months. The results of the first stage coincide with the data of some studies with wastewater. The results of the second phase even being positive for the presence of helminth eggs and oocysts of protozoa do not make it possible to compare, since there is the analysis results literature helminth eggs and oocysts of protozoa present in the rhizosphere of macrophyte Typha domingensis. As a result of the analysis of the first phase gave an average value of the presence of helminth eggs 112.4 eggs/ L FP35 and 113.5 eggs/ L FP50. Samples of Cryptosporidium sp all samples tested positive for the presence of oocysts and Giardia sp all were negative. In the second phase, we obtained a greater number of eggs found in a sample of one of the analyzed samples and other samples remained very close values of helminth eggs. In Cryptosporidium sp samples only the last three specimens was negative and Giardia sp only a sample of a specimen was positive.
