According to WHO data, the population health level on 80% is bonded with drinking water quality and water supply characteristics. Quality of drinking water is worsening during its transportation through distribution pipelines due to their internal corrosion, what leads also to negative economic effects. According to available literature data, the most effective simultaneous corrosion and scale control can be provided by chemical Sea-Quest, empirical formula Na35H5P26O85, manufacturing by Aqua Smart, Inc., USA. Studying of drinking water stabilizing treatment by chemical Sea-Quest influence on functional state of laboratory animals’ organs and systems were conducted by us. Bibliographical analysis of scientific information, chemical, physical, physic-chemical, electrochemical, gravimetric, physiological, statistical research methods were used.
