Coastal water samples were collected from 20 sampling sites in the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia. Seven physicochemical parameters were measured directly in-situ while water samples were collected and analysed for 6 dissolved trace metal concentrations. The surface water (0-20 cm) physico-chemical parameters including temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, total dissolved soli...

copper is a very common element in water resources. for this reason, concerns about the risks and consequences of this element in water contamination are arising. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of water-born cuo (copper (ii) oxide) on the rainbow trout, oncorhynchus mykiss gill tissue to establish a suitable biomarker for copper in water resources. samples with 18±3g b...

For the isolation and cultivation of Legionella pneumophila from tap water in hospitals, we compared different media and selection techniques. A second part of the study compared the L. pneumophila yields from different water samples at identical sites. A total of 210 water samples (500 ml each) were collected from two selected sites in each of 21 hospitals. Warm water samples were collected af...

groundwater quality in nour coastal plain in mazandaran province of iran is assessed by measuring physicochemical parameters including total dissolved solid, electrical conductivity, ph, total hardness, major cation and anion compositions and nitrate pollution. for this purpose, fifty groundwater samples were collected in july 2012. the hydrochemical types, ca–hco3 and mg–hco3 dominate in all s...

The present study was designed to demonstrate the seasonal variations in physico-chemical parameters of fish farm at Govt. Nursery Unit, Muzaffargarh, Department of Fisheries Govt. of Punjab, Pakistan for a period of eight months from January to August 2008. Water samples were collected on fifteen days basis and have been analyzed for estimation of Air temperature, Water temperature, Light pene...
