| Abstract:
|
Bottled drinking water consumption has increased in recent years. Determination of chemical
composition of these waters is important in terms of public health. Therefore, the objective of the
study was to determine nitrate, fluoride, chloride and sulfate levels in bottled waters sold in Sanandaj
city during summer and winter of 2012, and their comparison with Iranian and international drinking
water standards. Samples were purchased and collected randomly from supermarkets in which 10
types of different brands were examined. The names of the brands are denoted as A to J. The volume
of each bottle was 1.5 Lit. Ion Chromatography was used to determine levels of different elements in
samples. The results of the study showed that nitrate, fluoride, chloride and sulfate levels in the
samples were 0.84-7.69, 0.04-0.32, 0.64-30.29 and 0.26-58.73 mg/l, respectively. Levels of nitrate,
fluoride, chloride and sulfate in the bottles were lower than drinking water standards, but the written
levels on the labels had no enough precision
