Abstract
High concentrations of fluoride (F-) in drinking water are harmful to human health. This communication reports F- incidence in ground water and its relation with the prevalence of dental and skeletal fluorosis in Sarguja, Chhattisgarh, India. In 1994 a World Health Organization expert committee on fluoride use stated that 1.0 mg/L should be an absolute upper bound, even in cold climates, and that 0.5 mg/L may be an appropriate lower limit A 2007 Australian systematic review recommended a range from 0.6 to 1.1 mg/L Assay of fluoride concentration in ground water samples around in some parts of Bilaspur revealed that fluoride content in beyond the permissible limit in a some residential areas. The extent of Fluoride present in different samples was obtained by spectrophotometer. The extent of fluoride was found in village Mahmand found to be from minimum 0.39 to 1.72 mg/l. But F- ion in Bijore was o.91 to 2.12 mg/l.
