Popis: Fast radio bursts are a class of transient radio sources that are thought to originate from extragalactic sources since their dispersion measure greatly exceeds the highest dispersion measure that the Milky Way interstellar medium can provide. Host Galaxies of twenty-two fast radio bursts have already been identified. In this paper, the dispersion measurement of these fast radio bursts produced by the Milky Way interstellar medium, and the intergalactic medium is obtained through known physical models to yield the host galaxy dispersion measure. It is observed that the host galaxy dispersion measure increases with its redshift value. We also obtained that the host galaxy dispersion measure has different distribution between repeaters and non-repeaters. It is noted that the reason for the divergence of the host galaxy dispersion measures should be accounted for by the difference in their local environment.
