Chemical fact sheets: Terbuthylazine

Chapter 12 of the Guidelines for drinking-water Quality (GDWQ) includes fact sheets on chemical contaminants, based on comprehensive review documents published by WHO. These fact sheets summarize the information on occurrence and health effects of the chemicals covered, presenting guideline values where these have been derived and the basis for their derivation, or where guideline values have not been derived, the rationale for not establishing such values. Information on analytical methods and limits of detection, treatment options and additional risk assessment and management considerations may also be included.    

The present fact sheet is extracted from the GDWQ, fourth edition incorporating the first and second addendum published in March 2022.
