Drinking Water Testing

Around the world, the function of monitoring drinking water quality, rests with municipal agencies, non-municipal organizations, and/or private businesses. Clean drinking water is essential to human health. It must be free from contaminants, such as bacteria, heavy metals and pesticides, to avoid adverse health effects.
