The research included studying the microbial and chemical content in magnetized water, alkaline water and liquefaction water and by 80 samples in the laboratories of the Center for Market Research and Consumer Protection - University of Baghdad, For the period from February 2019 to June 2019. The results showed the microbial content of the study samples when the bacteria were completely counted, the samples were free from bacteria at the time period of zero and 30 minutes and at temperatures of 100 and 4 °C and the appearance of bacterial growth at the time period of 24 hours and 30 days, as well as the absence of samples from E. coli and fecal coliform bacteria. As for the acidic function PH, the liquefaction water was 9.08, distilled water 6.80, and deionized water 7.4, and magnetic water ranged between (7.85-10.02) and alkaline water ranged between (8.0-10.5). As for the concentration of the elements magnesium, manganese, copper, iron, zinc, cadmium, lead, mercury and arsenic, they were within the limits allowed by the Iraqi, Arab and international specifications for the time period of zero and 30 minutes, except for arsenic and lead. As for the time period of 24 hours and 30 days, the concentration of iron and lead has increased, and the concentration of arsenic has decreased, as is the case at temperatures 4 and 100ºC. Thus, the models for magnetic water, alkaline water and liquefaction water are not suitable for drinking for all periods of time and different temperatures because they contain arsenic, mercury, lead and iron elements. © 2020 Plant Archives.
