-- In the district of Puente Piedra assessed exposure levels of contamination of arsenic, in particular because it is a district with little health control over the quality of drinking water. To carry out this study were taken 38 samples of drinking water, 13 were from SEDAPAL, 13 water tankers and 12 water wells, and we used the spectrophotometric method with graphite furnace atomic absorption. It was found that the average concentration arsenic of total samples from SEDAPAL was 9.13 μg As/L and total samples from Tank was 5.04 mg As/L which does not exceed the maximum permissible concentration given by the NTP 214.003.87 (50 µg As/L) and the World Health Organization (10 µg As/L). It also found that the average concentration of arsenic in drinking water from wells was 22,40 μg As/L, which is above the allowable limit set by the World Health Organization (WHO) and below the permissible limit set by the NTP 214.003.87. It is noted that 100% of the samples exceeded the permissible limit set by WHO. It is recommended that such studies in other states of Lima in order to monitor water quality for human consumption that caters to the residents.
