Bottled Mineral Water

Two kinds of bottled mineral water from wells located in the northern (Baeksansu, BSS) and southern (Baekdusansu, BDS) areas near Mt. Baekdu (Changbai) were collected in order to monitor the chemical compositions of the groundwater near a potential volcanic area. The bottled water was produced between August 2014 and June 2017, and corresponds to the Na-HCO3 water type. The trend in variation of each chemical component between the two bottled waters was different. The BDS bottled water from the southern area of Mt. Baekdu showed a dramatic change in chemical composition during the study period, whereas the BSS bottled water from the northern area did not show any significant change in chemical composition. In particular, the BDS bottled water showed either systematic increases or decreases of chemical components relative to the Cl concentrations. However, the BSS bottled water did not show such trends. It was confirmed that the chemical composition in the groundwater was constant, even though the monitoring period lasted for about two years. Our data indicate that it may be possible to use the chemical composition of the bottle water produced from the groundwater in the volcanic area as a proxy for monitoring the geochemical environmental change of the groundwater aquifer.

Bottled Mineral Water

The author aims to find out about urban people needs in bottled mineral water. The author uses the Means-End-Chain method which is commonly used to find what attributes are needed by consumers of a product or service. This research uses qualitative methods with in-depth interviews to answer the question of what content is most expected of urban communities in bottled mineral water. There are three factors that we examine, namely attributes, consequences, and values. By understanding the means end chain from our sample, we hope that related party can develop a product from our research result.

Bottled Mineral Water

The main objective of this study was to analyse the occurrence of yeasts and filamentous fungi in drinking water as well as to investigate their correlation with the indicator bacteria of faecal pollution. Yeasts were detected in 36.6% and 11.6% of the bottled mineral on water dispensers and tap water samples from municipal system, respectively. Twenty-one (35.0%) of bottled mineral water and two (3.3%) of tap water samples were positive for filamentous fungi. For bottled mineral water 12 (20.0%) of 60 samples were positive for total coliform, compared with 3(5.0%)out of 60 samples from tap water. The mineral water from dispensers was more contaminated than tap water. Strains belonging to the genera Candida identified to the species level were C. parapsilosis, C. glabrata and C. albicans. Thus, bottled mineral water from water dispensers and tap water could be considered a possible transmission route for filamentous fungi and yeasts, and could constitute a potential health hazard, mainly to immunocompromised indivuals.

A total of 139 replicate samples of water were tested for Aeromonas hydrophila and coliforms. These consisted of 95 replicates from bottled mineral water, 13 replicates from flower petal infusions and 31 samples of domestic municipality supplies. Of these, 59 (43%) were positive for A. hydrophila, 15 (11%) were positive for coliforms and 11 (8%) positive for both A. hydrophila and coliforms. Most of the isolates of A. hydrophila came from various batches of one brand of bottled mineral water, none of which contained coliforms. The organism was isolated more frequently from newer samples, particularly those bottled for 59 d or less. Samples of treated water from one municipality were free from coliforms and A. hydrophila. Chlorinated water from another town was free from coliforms, but some samples contained A. hydrophila. In unchlorinated water from a third municipal source, there was a high degree of correlation between incidence of A. hydrophila and presence of coliforms. A selective method, using media without antibiotics, for isolation of A. hydrophila was used. A novel medium for the presumptive identification of A. hydrophila, gelatin arginine dihydrolase (GAD) medium, was assessed, with confirmation of suspected isolates using the API 20E system. Of 109 isolates from two selective agars identified with the organism on API strips, 18 (16.5%) were falsely gelatinase negative in GAD medium, of which 9 (8.3%) also gave false-negative arginine dihydrolase reactions. Of those presumptively identified as A. hydrophila in GAD, 4/95 isolates (4.2% false-positives) were not confirmed.

Trace elements present in bottled mineral water have been studied by PIXE and ICP-MS. Samples from ten different brands of bottled mineral water were prepared by preconcentration techniques. Measurements were carried out using the 2 MeV proton beam obtained from 3 MV Tandem pelletron accelerator at the Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar. Our results are compared with Indian standard packaged natural mineral water specifications, World Health Organisation (WHO) and European guidelines for drinking water standards. Concentration of aluminium was found to be more in one of the brands. In general, our results are comparable to the above standards.
