title: [Hygienic significance of geohydrochemical features of the Moscow region].
abstract: The biochemical features of the Moscow artesian pool and the influence of water on the population's health are shown. The paper present information on the sources of the water-supply system in the town of Zelenograd whose population uses river and artesian waters. The drinking water in Zelenograd and in the populated areas of the Moscow Region contains toxic elements, such lithium, born, strontium, fluorine, barium in the quantities greater than the adopted specifications. It is stated that the presents of the above agents in the waters of the Moscow artesian pool suggests regional geochemical anomaly. Mixing artesian and river waters in Zelenograd has a positive effect, by causing a reduction in the incidence of fluorosis.
