Arsenic reduction for drinking water

摘要

Arsenic (As) is a hazard. Its concentrations in food and drinking water are regulated worldwide for safeguarding human health. Arsenic researchers across the world increasingly believe that the risks of As are more widespread than previously recognised and concentrations lower than the EU standard of 10μg/1 may still pose significant risk to the health and lives of consumers. Toxicology research emphasising the health effects of As concentrations below 10μg/1 is currently ongoing in many parts of the world.These concentrations are those that many Europeans, Americans and Canadians live with every day.
