Relevant to this, descriptive statistics, as well as hierarchical ascendant classification (HAC) and principal component analysis (PCA), were used to analyse the data. The results of this study highlighted a similarity between some Algerian brands and other foreign brands of water in terms of mineral content. Moreover, the results obtained by using PCA and HAC allowed us to divide the sample of Algerian mineral waters into three distinct groups, each with similar physicochemical characteristics. The first group (Soummam, Manbaa Al Ghezlane, Mouzaia, Amane, Djmila, and Hayet) is characterized by very high levels of mineral salts compared to the other brands. The second group (Guedila, Tazliza, Arwa, Baniane, Saida, Ifri, Messerghine, Sfid, Mansourah, Batna, Mileza, S. Rached, Dhaya, Qniaa, and Lejdar) is distinguished from the first group by its average mineralization. Finally, the third group (Fezguia, Nestl\u00e9, Ovitale, L. Khedidja, A. Bouglez, Ayris, Righia, Togi, and Toudja) presents a very low mineralization.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2166\/wh.2023.142","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,22]],"date-time":"2023-09-22T20:55:08Z","timestamp":1695416108000},"page":"1489-1502","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2166\/iwapcrossmarkpolicypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Classification of bottled waters marketed and consumed in Algeria through statistical approaches"],"prefix":"10.2166","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-2351-9082","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Khadidja","family":"Ketrouci","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"a Laboratory of the Sciences and Techniques of Water, University of Mascara, B.P. 763, Mascara, Algeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohammed","family":"Meddi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"b National Higher School of Hydraulics, LGEE, Blida, Algeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naouel","family":"Bouregba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"a Laboratory of the Sciences and Techniques of Water, University of Mascara, B.P. 763, Mascara, Algeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Imene","family":"Zatout","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"a Laboratory of the Sciences and Techniques of Water, University of Mascara, B.P. 763, Mascara, Algeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Asmae","family":"Rezki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"a Laboratory of the Sciences and Techniques of Water, University of Mascara, B.P. 763, Mascara, Algeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"945","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"key-10.2166\/wh.2023.142-1","unstructured":"Ait A. 2021 L'eau min\u00e9rale: un luxe d\u00e9sormais n\u00e9cessaire.
