“…The mean concentration of cadmium in Pip’s study (0.2±0.04 µg/l), is much lower than that of our study ( 33 ). The cadmium concentration in Yazd’s Water Distribution Network in the study of Salmani et al, (3.35±0.79 µg/l), is more than that of ours ( 34 ).…”

Introduction:The presence of heavy metals such as cadmium in drinking water resources can be dangerous for human because of toxicity and biological accumulation. The consumption of water which contains Cd in high concentration can lead to Bone and Kidney diseases.Material and Methods:In this present study, the researcher collected 432 samples of bottled water in the popular marks in summer and winter from the surface of Bandar Abbas. The cadmium concentration was measured by atomic absorption Spectrophotometer in model DR2800 through the Dithizone method. CDI, R and HQ which are caused by Cd for adult men, women and children, have been calculated and evaluated through the equations of EPA and WHO.Results:Mean of 1.73±0.19 µg/l (M±SE) is lower than the standard of WHO and EPA. However, 33.2% of all the samples have concentrations more than the standard limit of WHO, and the concentrations of 22.4% of the samples are more than EPA’s standard. The CDI for different age groups is as following manner; Children>adult women>adult men. The CDI in children is more than twice as much as in the CDI for adult men and women. The mean of HQ order for different age groups is children>adult men>adult women. Since HQ of adult men (34E-5), adult women (31E-5) and children (84E-5), is lower than 1.Conclusion:It can be said that the population of Bandar Abbas is in a safe area regarding the HQ of the bottled water’s cadmium.

“…Results for TDS were within the range 171.33-403.82 ppm with the highest concentration during the fourth sampling period in all studied stations (see Table 5). The high levels of TDS can be associated with the presence of carbonates in water samples (Pip, 2000).…”

“…Three samples of distilled water showed unexpectedly high content of copper and nickel ions (88-147 and 16-35 µg/dm 3 , respectively), which was probably due to contamination in the process of distillation. Furthermore, in [116] examination of 40 Canadian and other imported water samples by methods of analytical chemistry revealed that some of the water samples failed to conform to the local standards in total content of dissolved solid substances and concentrations of chlorides and lead.…”

The comprehensive critical review of works on drinking water biotests, which is widely applied worldwide as the method to analyse the drinking water quality and risk evaluation for human health. The need to apply complex approach for biotests has been justified. Analysis result of 53 marks of bottled water by biotest methods has been introduced for the first time ever. The use of chemical methods for the assessment of natural water quality does not always yield necessary results, due to the lack of information on the biological components of the chemicals analyzed. Biotesting makes it possible to determine water toxicity, and it does not contain any harmful substances according to the chemical analysis. However, according to the biological criteria, the location of the toxicant agent does not indicate water toxicity. Moreover, the chemical examination does not take into consideration the interaction of contaminants and their transformation both in nature and in organisms. Biotesting methods assess objectively and comprehensively the influence of substances on an organism and its vital processes. In many cases biomonitoring is technically simpler and considerably cheaper than other alternatives. It does not require special instrumentation; it is limited in time; and it is more precise and sensitive in comparison with the chemical analysis. On the whole, biotesting will lead both to a reduction in the number of necessary procedures and to the significant simplification of the examination process. KeywordsMethods of biological assessment to determine the quality of aqueous environments may be divided into the methods of bioindication and biotesting. Biotesting V. V. Goncharuk, Drinking Water,
