Formation of emerging disinfection byproducts in water and evaluation of potential genotoxic effects: the case of halogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are formed when disinfectants used in water treatment plants (WTPs) react with natural (or anthropogenic) organic matter present in the source water. Many studies have addressed health risks posed by a life-time exposure to DBPs through chlorinated drinking water or th...
