Consumers are reacting to the water quality problems by buying bottled water which is an expensive solution and only partially addresses the problem. Subsequently, sales of bottled water have increased dramatically in the last ten years. To assess the quality of bottled water in Egypt, samples of 14 Egyptian brands of uncarbonated natural bottled water were evaluated within 6 months. Physico-ch...

“Real Time Sensor Web Enabled Water Quality Monitoring System” is an attempt to develop a general sensor and data model for monitoring water quality. The parameters for determining the quality of water are the pH level, turbidity and temperature. The main aim of this paper is to use a standardized Service Orientated Architecture (SOA), for sensor data representation in universal standards that ...

background: in addition of the socio-economics costs, trauma is the 4th cause of death at all age groups, in 2000, trauma was caused more than 6 million deaths in the world. despite promising trend in improving many aspects of health care and treatment in the last decade in our country, little attention has been paid to the subject of registering trauma on an international standard. effective p...

In this dossier information on identity testing (e.g. by NMR, MS, IR, UV), purity testing (e.g. water content, residual...

A significant proportion of the world’s population use potable water for drinking, cooking, personal and home hygiene (WHO, 2004). Indeed water is life. According to Gore (1993), “Human beings are made of water, in roughly the same percentage as water is in the surface of the earth. Our tissues and membranes, brains and heart, our sweat and tears all reflect the same recipe for life, in which e...

We performed epidemiologic studies at public freshwater bathing sites in Germany to provide a better scientific basis for the definition of recreational water quality standards. A total of 2,196 participants were recruited from the local population and randomized into bathers and nonbathers. Bathers were exposed for 10 min and had to immerse their head at least three times. Water samples for mi...
