Cancer risk assessment from trihalomethanes in drinking water.
This study intends to calculate the lifetime cancer risks resulting from intakes of trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking water based on the presence of each THM species. The slope factors for each THM species are used, combined with exposure model and Monte Carlo simulations, to calculate the cancer risks with consideration of different exposure routes (oral ingestion, inhalation and dermal absor...
متن کاملHuman health risk from trihalomethanes in drinking water evaluation with fuzzy aggregation
The human body is most likely to ingest microbes or disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water. More than 80% of water treatment plants use chlorine as a disinfectant. Approximately 14–16% of the bladder cancers in Ontario, Canada, are attributable to the drinking waters containing relatively high levels of chlorinated by-products (CBPs). In recent studies, in addition to the chronic can...
متن کاملTrihalomethanes in drinking water and spontaneous abortion.
Trihalomethanes (chloroform, bromoform, bromodichloromethane, and chlorodibromomethane) are common contaminants of chlorinated drinking water. Although animal data indicate that these compounds may be reproductive toxicants, little information exists on their relation to spontaneous abortion in humans. We examined exposure to trihalomethanes and spontaneous abortion in a prospective study of 5,...
متن کاملLifetime risk assessment of Radium-226 in drinking water samples
Background: One of the most significant radionuclides in natural drinking waters is 226Ra and its decay products. It is potential of health problems, including cancer risk. In this study, the effect of 226Ra concentration in 28 drinking water samples collected from the North Guilan province was investigated. Materials and Methods: The activity concentrations of 226Ra were measured by using of r...
متن کاملNon-cancer Risk Assessment of Nitrate in Drinking Water of Urban and Rural areas of Zahedan City in 2018
Background & Aim: Groundwater is a major source of drinking water in Zahedan city; however, its quality is affected by high human activities and leads to the increased level of nitrate. This study was conducted to evaluate the nitrate concentration in water resources compared to the standards and also evaluating its Non-Carcinogenic Risk (Hazard Quotient: HQ) in Zahedan city. Methods: In this ...
