Resumo: Objective: To assess the levels of fluoride ions and microbiological standard present in the public water supply of cities that fluoridate their water in the state of Alagoas. Methods: Descriptive cross sectional study conducted in the period 2012-2014 to analyze all reports issued by the Public Health Central Laboratory of Alagoas (Laboratório Central de Saúde Pública de Alagoas - LACEN-AL) with the results of drinking-water analysis of the eleven cities in Alagoas that fluoridated their water – a total of 3,089 reports. We assessed the total number of samples sent for analysis of water quality, the number of samples for analysis of fluoride, levels and variation of fluoride ions, and the microbiological standard of fluoride samples. Data underwent descriptive analysis with absolute frequencies and percentages. Results: 429 (83.9%) of the samples collected were in the range 0.0-0.5 mgF/L, which is considered below the recommended levels, and there was a great variation in the concentration of fluoride ions; 128 (26.3%) fluoridated water samples were outside the potability standards. Conclusion: Data showed a great variation and a high percentage of samples with low concentrations of fluoride as well as the need to improve the quality of water provided in order to guarantee a continued access to drinking-water.

Métodos: Estudio transversal descriptivo realizado entre 2012 y 2014 en el cual se analizó todos los laudos emitidos por El Laboratorio Central de Salud Pública de Alagoas (LACEN-AL) con los resultados del análisis de la calidad del agua para El consumo humano de los once municipios de Alagoas que añadieron el flúor en sus aguas en un total de 3.089 laudos. Se evaluó El número total de muestras enviadas para el análisis de la calidad del agua, la cantidad de muestras de las cuales fueron solicitadas el análisis del fluoruro, las concentraciones y variaciones de los iones de fluoruro y el patrón microbiológico de las muestras com flúor. Se realizó el análisis descriptivo de los datos obteniéndose las frecuencias absolutas y las relativas porcentuales. Resultados: Fueron encontradas 429 (83,9%) muestras recogidas en El intervalo de 0,0-0,5 mgF/L, número abajo del recomendable, además de una gran variación de la concentración de los iones de fluoruro y 128 (26,3%) muestras del agua con flúor fuera de los patrones de potabilidad. Conclusión: Los datos muestran uma gran variación y un elevado porcentual de muestras con bajas concentraciones de flúor así como la necesidad de mejoría en La calidad del agua ofrecida de manera a garantizar la población El acceso continuo de agua potable.Objetivo: Analisar os teores de íons de fluoreto e o padrão microbiológico encontrado nas águas de abastecimento público dos municípios alagoanos que fluoretam suas águas. Métodos: Estudo transversal descritivo realizado no período de 2012 a 2014, no qual se analisaram todos os laudos emitidos pelo Laboratório Central de Saúde Pública de Alagoas (LACEN-AL) com os resultados da análise da qualidade da água para consumo humano dos onze municípios alagoanos que fluoretaram suas águas, totalizando 3.089 laudos. Avaliou-se o número total de amostras enviadas para análise da qualidade da água, a quantidade de amostras em que foi solicitada a análise de fluoreto, teores e variações dos íons de fluoreto e o padrão microbiológico das amostras fluoretadas. Realizou-se a análise descritiva dos dados, obtendo-se as frequências absolutas e relativas percentuais. Resultados: Foram encontradas 429 (83,9%) amostras coletadas no intervalo 0,0-0,5 mgF/L, número considerado abaixo do recomendável, além de grande variação na concentração dos íons de fluoreto e 128 (26,3%) amostras de água fluoretada fora dos padrões de potabilidade. Conclusão: Os dados mostraram uma grande variação e um alto percentual de amostras com baixas concentrações de fluoreto, assim como a necessidade de melhoria da qualidade da água ofertada, de modo a garantir para a população o acesso contínuo à água potávelUniversidade de Fortaleza2015-06-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/351810.5020/18061230.2015.p216Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 28 No. 2 (2015); 216-222Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 28 Núm. 2 (2015); 216-222Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 28 n. 2 (2015); 216-2221806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporenghttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/3518/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/3518/pdf_1Lisboa, Guacyra MachadoRabelo, TaynahSales, Alcides José RamosMonteiro, Edna Maria Silveirada Silva Filho, Eurípedes Alvesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-02-16T12:26:36Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/3518Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2022-02-16T12:26:36Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
