“…The persons, who are not exposed to excessive levels of fluoride, the fluoride concentration in their urine is usually in the range of 1.0-1.5 mg/L [21]. Urinary fluoride concentrations in adult participants from AretengXire of Ejin Horo Banner, SumuErga of Ejin Horo Banner and ZhalaiNuoer of Manzhouli city are displayed in Table 4.…”

“…The composition of TISAB was as follows: 58 g of NaCl, 4 g of CDTA (Cyclohexylene diamine tetraacetic acid) and 57 ml of glacial acetic acid per liter and NaOH 5 M was added to obtain a pH of 5.2-5.4 (Singh et al 2007). Calibration curve was frequently carried out with fresh fluoride standards of 0.2 up to 10 mg/L.…”

This study aimed to analyze the fluoride concentration in tap drinking water in different cities of Morocco using an electrochemical ion-selective method. Three samples were collected from each thirteen selected cities in the period between March and May 2011. The median value of fluoride was 0.94 mg/L (0.21-2.97). High fluoride concentrations (>0.8 mg/L) were found in sixteen cities. Very high values were found in phosphate regions such as Khouribga which is known to be an endemic dental fluorosis area. This study has shown that the concentration of fluoride in drinking water exceeds the limit especially in phosphate regions.

“…Urine samples were collected in sterilized plastic containers and preserved in deep freezer at -20°C before the analysis. Fluoride concentrations in urine were measured in the field itself with the F-specific electrode (Orion ion meter) after dilution of each sample (1:1) with the total ionic strength adjustment buffer (Singh et al 2007). …”

This research work is carried out to evaluate fluoride (F) hydrogeochemistry and its effect on the population of two endemic villages of Birbhum district, West Bengal. Fluoride concentration in drinking water varies from 0.33 to 18.08 mg/L. Hydrogeochemical evolution suggests that ion-exchange mechanism is the major controlling factor for releasing F in the groundwater. Most of the groundwater samples are undersaturated with respect to calcite and fluorite. Health survey shows that out of 235 people, 142 people suffer from dental fluorosis. According to fluoride impact severity, almost 80 and 94 % people in an age group of 11-20 and 41-50 suffer from dental and skeletal fluorosis, respectively. Statistically drinking water F has a positive correlation with dental and skeletal fluorosis. Bone mineral density test reveals that 33 and 45 % of the studied population suffer from osteopenic and osteoporosis disease. IQ test also signifies that F has a bearing on the intelligence development of the study area school children. The existence of significant linear relationship (R (2) = 0.77) between drinking water F and urinary F suggests that consumption of F-contaminated drinking water has a major control over urinary F (0.39-20.1 mg/L) excretion.
