Abstract Shallow groundwater contaminated with nitrates may result in human health risks. Groundwater quality in the Beni Amir irrigation perimeter in Tadla plain, Morocco, is influenced by agriculture and farming-related activities. This study was carried out to assess the nitrate contamination of groundwater for drinking purposes by comparing it to Moroccan and WHO guidelines, and by estimating the potential human health effect of nitrates using the model recommended by the USEPA. The results showed that the nitrate content of groundwater fall between 0 and 82.08?mg L?1 (mean 24.73?mg L?1), with 38.10% of groundwater samples exceed the Moroccan and WHO limits for drinking. Groundwater nitrates mainly originated from intensive agricultural practices. The health effects of oral exposure to nitrate are higher than those of dermal exposure. For non-carcinogenic risks, 57.14% of samples showed hazard index (HI) values >1, indicating potential risks. The non-carcinogenic risk for infant and female are higher than that for females and males. The results of this study will offer a health risk reference for local residents and can help to propose suitable management ensuring safe drinking water. 相似文献

The effects of a single intramuscular iron dose, 10mg, to pregnant rats on Day of pregnancy, on the
outcome of pregnancy, with respect to foetal weight and mother’s immune function has been investigated.
Despite significantly elevated hepatic iron stores after iron supplementation in pregnant rats this had no
significant effect upon blood haemoglobin or transferrin saturation levels. However the mean weight of the
foetuses at Day 20-21 was significantly lower than that of the non-supplemented pregnant rats. Iron
supplements significantly increased the activity of NADPH oxidase in the maternal alveolar macrophages,
the primary event in the formation of the phagolysosome to combat invading organisms. However inducible
nitric oxide synthase activity was significantly reduced in these macrophages as shown by decreases in LPSinduced
and LPS+IFNγ-induced NOS activation. Iron supplementation to rats of normal iron status at the
commencement of pregnancy did not show any beneficial effects to either the foetus or the mother. 相似文献
