Overview

Research evaluates arsenic levels in groundwater, revealing significant contamination in Golaghat district, suggesting mitigation strategies.

Key Points

  • The study aims to assess arsenic contamination in groundwater and its implications for public health in Golaghat district.
  • Collected groundwater samples from 10 villages in Golaghat district
  • Analyzed arsenic concentrations using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry
  • Utilized a one-sample t-test to compare results against WHO standards
  • 68% of samples exceeded the World Health Organization's safe limit of 10 µg/L for arsenic
  • Statistical analysis showed a significant contamination level (p < 0.001)
