WEDNESDAY, Oct. 23, 2024 -- Long-term exposure to even low levels of arsenic in drinking water can raise a person’s risk ofheart disease, a new study warns. Even folks exposed to arsenic levels below the federal limit of 10 micrograms per liter (ug/L) had an increased risk of heart...

The analysis found that exposure to between 1 and 5 parts per billion raised kidney cancer risk by 6%, and exposure above 5 parts per billion raised the risk by 22%. In addition, the risk of cancer increased by 4% with each doubling of water arsenic levels. "This suggests that even low...

In 1998, arsenic concentrations of more than 50 micrograms/l were detected in some drinking water supplies from underground sources in the Autonomous Community of Madrid, which is the maximum permissible concentration for drinking water in Spain. These two facts have meant the getting under way of...
Figure 3. As and Se recoveries in Trace Metals in Drinking Water-B. Image Credit: PerkinElmer, Inc.Trace Metals in Drinking Water-B (containing 10 ppb As and 11 ppb Se) were measured to evaluate the accuracy of the methodology. Recoveries for both elements were found to be within 10% ...
The research team studied male mice exposed to sub-toxic levels of arsenic to simulate chronic exposure to arsenic-contaminated drinking water. When compared with a control group, the arsenic-exposed mice exhibited higherblood glucose levelsdue to reducedinsulin secretionduring the early phases of a ...
Groundwater is consumed by a large number of people as their primary source of drinking water globally. Among all the countries worldwide, nations in South Asia, particularly India and Bangladesh, have severe problem of groundwater arsenic (As) contamination so are on our primary focus in this...
