Canine Urothelial DNA Mutations Are Not Associated With Total Trihalomethanes Concentrations in Municipal Drinking Water. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Contaminants in municipal drinking water, specifically total trihalomethanes (TTHMs), are mutagenic. Exposures to TTHMs have been associated with urothelial carcinoma (UC) in both people and dogs. Mutations in the BRAF gene and other genomic copy number aberrations detected in voided urothelial cells with commercial CADET BRAF and BRAF‐PLUS ...

Trihalomethanes as initiators and promoters of carcinogenesis. [PDF]
Chloroform and other trihalomethanes are contaminants of drinking water that have been demonstrated to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals. Determination of the mechanism of carcinogenicity of chloroform is required so that the animal data can be extrapolated to estimate the human health hazard.

Kinetics and thermodynamics of the formation of trihalomethanes
The effect of contact time and temperature on the formation of trihalomethanes (THMs) was studied during the chlorination of Khandaq El-Sharqi canal, Egypt, under laboratory condition. Samples were collected from four positions of Khandaq El-Sharqi canal

Disinfection by-products in drinking water distribution system of Bucharest City
Chlorine is widely used in Romania and all over the world as a disinfectant of drinking water. During the chlorination process, the natural organic matter and inorganic ions react with chlorine forming disinfection by-products (DBPs).

Sorption of trihalomethanes in foods
Trihalomethanes (THMs, namely, CHCl(3), CHCl(2)Br, CHClBr(2) and CHBr(3)) are disinfection by-products that are present in drinking water. These toxic chemicals are also present in meat, dairy products, vegetables, baked goods, beverages and other foods, although information regarding their concentrations and origin is very limited.
