Arsenic in Drinking Water and Diabetes

Abstract: Arsenic is ubiquitous in soil and water environments and is consistently at the top of the Agency for Toxic Substances Disease Registry (ATSDR) substance priority list. It has been shown to induce toxicity even at low levels of exposure. One of the major routes of exposure to arsenic is through drinking water. This review presents current information related to the distribution of arsenic in the environment, the resultant impacts on human health, especially related to diabetes, which is one of the most prevale… Show more

“…Weathering, geochemical reactions, and volcanic emissions are other natural activities that are responsible for arsenic contamination . Anthropogenic sources of environmental arsenic contamination are the production of pesticides, herbicides, and crop desiccants, the combustion of fossil fuels, the hydrometallurgy of natural ores, and the semiconductor industry. The significance of these contents is particularly clear when one considers that arsenic, especially inorganic species, can accumulate in water resources, the food chain, and the human body, which poses a serious threat to wildlife and human health . Depending on the exposure time and concentration of arsenic, various serious effects on human health will be observed.…”
