Comparative Study[Effect of thermal power stations on the sanitary and biological conditions of water reservoirs].
Discharge of thermal waters from power stations can result in the development of thermophilic microorganisms in the water reservoirs and increased water pollution. Increased water temperature changes relationships between lysozyme-active and antilysozyme-active bacteria. The quality of water gets worse.

Comparative Study[Hygienic assessment of the effects of drinking water on the population's health].
The paper presents the quality of drinking water. The carcinogenic risk of water and the coefficient of its toxic effect were calculated. The findings determine the priority of the pollutants detected in the drinking water, estimate the carcinogenic risk of water to be 1.4 per 10,000 population. It is recommended to revise specifications for the drinking water of dichloromethane, dichloroethylene, dioctyl phthalate and acrylonitrile.
