Sažetak
In the last two centuries since the beginning of industrialization, the world has developed rapidly, which has contributed to the development of water supply networks and the improvement of the quality of drinking water. At the same time, as a result of the increasing development of industry, air and water pollution is also increased. The drinking water that we daily enter into our organisms, although thoroughly processed and purified by water services, still contains traces of the various contaminants. Despite regular testing of water quality, and limited maximum permitted levels for each contaminant, the question arises whether and to what extent the mentioned substances have a negative effect on human health. The most common contaminants detected in drinking water that according to the relevant worldwide research contribute to a higher risk of cancer are arsenic and other heavy metals, nitrates, byproducts of chemicals and radioactive materials. The most common malignancies associated with this etiology are cancers of the bladder, kidneys, liver, colon and lungs. The goal of this research is to determine the current scientific knowledge of their oncogenic potential and their mechanisms of oncogenesis.
