Abstract
The study aimed to assure the suitability of drinking water at
Wadda, Bahar Omdurman
and Wad Kuta area in north Darfur state. Water samples were taken from different
locations in the above mentioned areas and were physically and chemically analyzed
which covered : pH ,turbidity, conductivity and total dissolved soli
d (TDS) ,color taste
odor , temperature ,total suspended solid (TSS ) , which were measured using suitable
analytical techniques for each metal, ion and compound such as Chromium(Cr

result was
compared with the maximum value Accepted by World Health Organization (WHO) and
Sudanese Standard and Metrology Organization (SSMO) applied by Laboratory
of
Ministry of Health form Alfasher. The results showed that the total dissolved solids
(TDS) for the five samples was high do not Conform to the standards.
