An indicator that describes the total amount of halogenated organic compounds (e.g., chloroform, bromoform, dibromochloromethane) in water. Expressed in µg/L
Shows the chemical composition of water formed during disinfection (especially chlorination), which affects its suitability for household use and health
A high concentration of haloforms can be toxic, carcinogenic and pose a danger to ecosystems and human health
In occupational health and safety assessments (drinking water quality)
In water control of industrial facilities (assessment of disinfection processes)
In environmental studies (assessment of the condition of water bodies)
