In this study, we have evaluated various surface water supplies near the city of Ankara in terms of their potentials to yield mutagenic compounds upon chlorination. With this intention, raw water samples were chlorinated and then subjected to the “Ames Salmonella Mutagenicity Test” (ASMT). The observed ASMT results indicated a moderate potential for the formation of mutagenic compounds. Relationships between mutagenicity and selected surrogate water-quality parameters were also examined. Mutagenicity displayed a generally increasing trend with quality parameters reflecting the background organic content. |
