A Study on the Water Quality of Domestic Mineral Water (Saeng Su)

국내 보존음료수(생수)의 성분에 관한 연구

This study was performed to analyze for the mineral water (Saeng Su) from 12 pure beverage Co. products, which was obtained during March to May in 1988. The results were as follows: 1. The analytical results of contaminant materials in all the samples were suitable for drinking water standard. The mean value of NH$_{3}$-N, NO$_{3}$-N, Cl-and KMnO$_{4}$ consumption were ND, 49mg/l, 1.08mg/l and 8.14mg/l, respectively. 2. Total bacterial counts were 3/cc in average and Coliforms was negative in all samples. 3. The analytical results of Heavy metals were not detected or detected in a small amount, and the contents were different from each company. The CN, Hg, P were not detected in all the samples and the mean value of Cu, Fe, Mn were 0.0087mg/l, 0.0303mg/l, 0.018mg/l, respectively and it's contents were low. 4. The mean value of Pb, Zn, Cr$^{+6}$, As and Cd were 0.016mg/l, 0.015mg/l, 0.0025mg/l. 0.0059mg/l and 0.0011mg/l respectively.
