Evaluation of an arsenic test kit for rapid well screening in Bangladesh.
Exposure to arsenic in groundwater via drinking remains unabated for millions of villagers in Bangladesh. Since a blanket testing campaign using test kits almost a decade ago, millions of new wells have been installed but not tested; thus affordable testing is needed. The performance of the Arsenic Econo-Quick (EQ) kit was evaluated by blindly testing 123 wells in Bangladesh and comparing with ...
متن کاملComment on "Reliability of a commercial kit to test groundwater for arsenic in Bangladesh".
