Abstract:
The physico-chemical and microbial parameters of the water add in soft drinks products in Khartoum state were evaluated and compared with the Sudanese Septic Laboratories (SSMO) and the World Health Organization. The results of physical analysis treated water samples showed the mean pH value (7.79) and EC conductivity (50.8 µS/cm). Furthermore the results also of chemical analysis shows the alkalinity in was recorded (185.5mg/L), turbidity (0.17 mg/L), hardness (79.88mg/L) and chlorine (20.7 mg/L) in treated water samples (P?0.05). Moreover the results showed absence of heavy metals (aluminums and lead) in all water samples before and after treatment. Also the results showed raw water samples were found from total bacterial count 7X10-6, mold 2X10-2 and total coli form 1. It is clear from, all samples treatment water showed the presence of total colony count, mold and yeast, E. coli and coliform. The study concluded that the physico-chemical properties of the water samples used in the soda industry for one of the companies in the state of Khartoum, as permitted by the High Health Organization and the Sudanese specification.
