Abstract
Cyanuric acid, used as chlorine stabilizer in swimming pool waters, has a relatively minor effect on the algicidal efficiency of free chlorine. The toxicity of free chlorine to three swimming pool algae was reduced slightly by 25 mg of cyanuric acid per liter if inhibiting, but less than algicidal, concentrations of chlorine were employed. Higher stabilizer concentrations (50, 100, and 200 mg/liter) generally resulted in no further reduction in the algicidal efficiency of free chlorine beyond that observed at 25 mg/liter.
