Abstract
By gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, camphor was detected from the water of Lake Inbanuma, a Chiba Prefecture [Japan] water supply source, and camphor and p-methylacetophenone were detected from the water of the southern basin of Lake Biwa, Kyoto City water supply source. These compounds are partly responsible for the objectionable odor and taste of the water.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
