| Compounds known as trihalomethanes are formed and have been identified as potentially cancer-causing. |
|
| The 3 studies using routine measurements of trihalomethanes constituted a homogeneous group. |
|
| However, when chlorine combines with other materials in water, it forms chloroform and related chemicals called trihalomethanes. |
|
| Some, including trihalomethanes, as well as many pesticides, herbicides, and industrial solvents are regulated by the government. |
|
| The protective effect of both rural residence and use of well water suggests less exposure to chlorine-treated water among people with lower blood levels of trihalomethanes. |
|
| More than 600 unique DBPs have been identified, with trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids the most prevalent DBPs found in chlorinated water. |
|
| When chlorine comes into contact with organic matter it can form compounds known as trihalomethanes. |
|
| Many cities have excessive levels of trihalomethanes in their water. |
|
| They said carcinogenic chemicals called trihalomethanes are created as a by-product of chlorinating water and can be absorbed through the skin, reports the Daily Mail. |
|
| Trihalomethanes are the DBPs found generally at the highest concentrations, and the most common THMs are chloroform, bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane, and bromoform. |
