Description
Mohamed Elsayed Gabr and Hoda Soussa assess groundwater quality and health risk in Qalyubia, Egypt, in a 2026 study. The crowded Nile Delta governorate relies on groundwater for drinking and farm use. The team tested whether water is safe by broad quality scores and by metal focused scores.
Samples from ten sites were checked for thirteen chemical traits. Broad scores rated water as good for drinking and farm use, while a metal score rated it as moderately affected. A pollution score stayed low, and no clear non cancer risk was found, though children were more at risk than adults. Regular metal checks are urged as an early warning.
