英文摘要：

Bio-safety evaluation of drinking water source is significant since an increasing number of chemicals resulted from the process of production, transportation and use were found in drinking water source which would arouse adverse effects on human health. Principles, procedures and practical applications of the methods for bio-safety evaluation ＇of drinking water and the products for use in contact with water were systematically introduced. Comparison analysis was made to indicate the advantages and problems of various technologies, to propose a broad, reliable, sensitive and applicable method for bio-safety evaluation of drinking water in the future.
