| الوصف: | Water chlorination is a standard treatment for ensuring the safety of public drinking water. One drawback to this beneficial practice is the generation of drinking water disinfection by-products (DWDB), some of which have been implicated as causing adverse human health outcomes. In this article, we report the results of 96 hours of developmental toxicity tests with embryos of the South African clawed frog 'Xenopus laevis' used to evaluate four individual DWDB: bromodichloromethane (BDCM), sodium chlorate, chloroform, and dibromoacetic acid (DBAA). These chemicals were selected for testing based on their potential for human harm and as representatives of byproducts of different disinfection processes. |
