| Summary: | Poor quality water is the second risk factor after poverty for diseases dynamics. Fluorine is important for human health, and since the main route for its introduction into the body is water, hygienic assessment of drinking water quality based on the content of this microelement at the regional level is very relevant, thus it has become our research objective.Eight districts of the region are characterized by such fluoride content in water which is significantly lower than optimal values; five districts by the concentrations exceeding maximum permissible values; and only three districts by approximately optimal average values. Different concentration of fluoride in the regional water supplies depends on the natural factor of this geographical zone. To provide the population of the region with high-quality drinking water a complex of various measures including the development and implementation of programs for improving local water supplies are required. |
