Multivariate distributions of disinfection by-products in chlorinated drinking water.
Drinking water disinfection by-product (DBP) occurrence research is important in supporting risk assessment and regulatory performance assessment. Recent DBP occurrence surveys have expanded their scope to include non-regulated priority DBPs as well as regulated DBPs. This study applies a Box-Cox transformed multivariate normal model and data augmentation methods for left-censored and missing o...
متن کاملExposure estimates to disinfection by-products of chlorinated drinking water.
Exposure to disinfection by-products (DBPs) of drinking water is multiroute and occurs in households serviced by municipal water treatment facilities that disinfect the water as a necessary step to halt the spread of waterborne infectious diseases. Biomarkers of the two most abundant groups of DBPs of chlorination, exhaled breath levels of trihalomethanes (THMs) and urinary levels of two haloac...
متن کاملExposure to drinking water disinfection by-products and pregnancy loss.
Previous research has suggested that exposure to elevated levels of drinking water disinfection by-products (DBPs) may cause pregnancy loss. In 2000-2004, the authors conducted a study in three US locations of varying DBP levels and evaluated 2,409 women in early pregnancy to assess their tap water DBP concentrations, water use, other risk factors, and pregnancy outcome. Tap water concentration...
متن کاملModern approaches to the analysis of disinfection by-products in drinking water.
The discovery and study of disinfection by-products (DBPs) of health and regulatory concern in drinking water have often been hampered by the lack of appropriate analytical methods, but, with the new tools and expertise now available to the drinking water industry, there is an opportunity to plug a major gap in our knowledge of the nature and identity of these chemicals. The challenge is that l...
متن کاملDisinfection by-products in drinking water and colorectal cancer: a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND There is inconclusive evidence from observational studies that disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water are associated with colorectal cancer. METHODS A literature search, without language or time limits, was performed to identify relevant case-control and cohort studies. Separate risk estimates for colon and rectal cancer were extracted from studies meeting the inclusion ...
