Disinfection by-products in drinking water and genotoxic changes in urinary bladder epithelial cells

Ranmuthugala, Geethanjali Piyawadani

Description

There is much debate on the carcinogenic potential of disinfection by-products (DBP) in chlorinated water supplies. Until recently, epidemiological studies have been limited in their ability to examine accurately the risk of cancer with exposure to environmental carcinogens.
