Abstract
Water color intensity is associated with topsoil concentration. The lower color intensity the lower topsoil concentration, pH and temperature. Peat water characteristic were determined by accumulation of Natural Organic Matter. The study was conducted on November 2017 to February 2018 in Health Laboratory of North Sumatera by using 3 samples of peat water to find out characteristics of peat water bacteria. Isolated bacteria were analysed by macroscopic and microscopic examination. The result showed that the bacteria have various morphology and motility. Based on characteristics, sp1 was suspected to be in the group of Staphylococcus genus while sp2 and sp3 were belong to the Escherichia genus.

Summary
Abstrak Intensitas warna air berhubungan dengan konsentrasi senyawa humus. Intensitas warna yang lebih rendah, konsentrasi senyawa humus, pH dan suhu yang lebih rendah. Karakteristik air gambut ditentukan oleh akumulasi Natural organic Matter (NOM). Penelitian yang dilaksanakan pada bulan November 2017 sampai dengan Februari 2018 di Balai Laboratorium Kesehatan Provinsi Sumatera Utara dengan menggunakan 3 sampel air gambut bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakteristik bakteri air gambut, bakteri diisolasi dan dianalisis dengan pemeriksaan makroskopis dan mikroskopis. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa bakteri tersebut memiliki berbagai morfologi, motilitas. Berdasarkan karakteristik, bakteri sp diduga sebagai genus Staphylococcus, sedangkan pada bakteri sp dan sp diduga sebagai genus Escherichia. Kata kunci: Air gambut, pH, Suhu, Isolasi Bakteri air gambut
