Raafat A Mandour

The quality of the drinking water is a universal health concern. This paper is an attempt to clarify concerns about the quality and safety of drinking water quality both tap and mineral on health of the people living in Dakahlia Governorate-Egypt. Drinking water samples were collected from 14 different locations of Dakahlia Governorate representing 73 samples and 7 samples of mineral water. These samples were analyzed for physicochemical and bacterlogical parameters. The found values of physicochemical and bacterlogical parameters were compared with the World Health Organization (WHO) and Egyptian Minstry of Health (EMH) water quality standards.
Study of all these characteristics and correlation studies indicate that in some of the studied areas water was polluted and not suitable for drinking purpose. The drinking water of these areas needs some degree of treatment before consumption and prevention steps to be taken from contamination.
