Disinfection of swimming pool water with sodium<br \/>\nhypochlorite and gaseous chlorine leads to the formation of trihalomethanes (THMs) in SPW, primarily TClM, whose<br \/>\nconcentrations can reach a maximum of 28.1 \u03bcg\/L in sports pools. On the other hand, TClM concentrations in the air<br \/>\nof halls of indoor swimming pool facilities can reach values up to 150 \u03bcg\/m3<br \/>\n.<br \/>\nIn the assessment of exposure of adult swimmers, the share of the daily inhalation dose of TClM is dominant,<br \/>\naccounting from 88.2% to 98.3% of the chronic daily intake (CDI) of this chemical compound, taking into account all<br \/>\nthree exposure routes: accidental oral intake of SPW (0.22-1.5% CDI), dermal contact with SPW (1.5-10.3% CDI)<br \/>\nand inhalation of TClM with the air. Nevertheless, taking into account the observed levels of TClM concentrations in<br \/>\nSPW of sports swimming pools and in the air, it can be concluded that the exposure of adult swimmers is negligible<br \/>\n(Hazard Quotients << 1).\nTaking into account the estimated exposure of lifeguards to TClM (mainly inhalation exposure) and the legally defined\nvalue of the maximum admissible concentration (8 mg\/m3), it can be concluded that the observed concentrations of\nthis compound in the air of swimming pool halls do not adversely affect the health of this professional group.\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":[],"tags":[4979,4982,3543,4981,4980,897,4978],"tematyka":[616],"class_list":["post-24184","artykul","type-artykul","status-publish","hentry","tag-adult-swimmers","tag-exposure","tag-indoor-air","tag-indoor-sports-pools","tag-lifeguards","tag-swimming-pool-water","tag-trichloromethane","tematyka-pool-installations","has-post-title","has-post-date","has-post-category","has-post-tag","has-post-comment","has-post-author",""],"ptb_metabox":{"ptb_artykul_text_1":["S\u0141AWOMIR GARBO\u015a","DOROTA \u015aWI\u0118CICKA"],"ptb_artykul_text_2":"10.36119\/15.2025.12.10","ptb_artykul_numer_miesi_cznika":"12\/2025 Instal pp.58-63","ptb_artykul_info_autor":"Dr S\u0142awomir Garbo\u015b https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8714-424X \u2012 Department of Nutrition and Nutritional Value of Food, National Institute of\r\nPublic Health NIH \u2013 National Research Institute, Warsaw, Poland\r\nDr in\u017c.
