Mammalian Cell Cytotoxicity and Genotoxicity of Disinfection By-Products

Abstract

Conducts a quantitative and comparative analysis of mammalian cell cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of representative DBPs from seven priority chemical classes. Provides a rank ordering of the potential health risks of the priority DBPs so that the water supply community will be able to consider these factors when evaluating alternatives to chlorine disinfection. Published in 2009.
