Environmental biomonitoring by snails
Biomarkers, 2021Background: Bio-indicator systems are vital in terms of monitoring of pollutants around the world. The impact of environmental change can be monitored by employing the responsive behaviour of snails. Heavy metal and organic pollutants affects snail reproduction, mortality, and normal metabolic activities.

Biomonitoring Equivalents for deltamethrin
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2011Measured concentrations of chemicals in blood or urine in biomonitoring studies provide an integrated reflection of exposures to chemicals via multiple routes and pathways. The potential significance of the measured concentrations of chemicals in the context of existing toxicology data and risk assessments can be assessed if chemical-specific ...

Human biomonitoring of antimony
International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 1998The aim of the study was to test the suitability of 24-h urine, blood, and scalp-hair samples as surrogates for the determination of internal exposure to antimony in case of a strongly elevated soil contamination with antimony.The bio-monitoring was performed using graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry.

Biomonitoring Equivalents for cyanide
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2018Exposure to cyanide is widespread in human populations due to a variety of natural and anthropogenic sources. The potential health risks of excess cyanide exposure are dose-dependent and include effects on the thyroid, the male reproductive system, developmental effects, neuropathies and death.

Biomonitoring Equivalents for benzene
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2012Biomonitoring Equivalents (BEs) are defined as the concentration or range of concentrations of a chemical or its metabolite in a biological medium (blood, urine, or other medium) that is consistent with an existing health-based exposure guideline such as a reference dose (RfD) or tolerable daily intake (TDI).

Biomonitoring Equivalents for selenium
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2014Selenium is an essential nutrient for human health with a narrow range between essentiality and toxicity. Selenium is incorporated into several proteins that perform important functions in the body. With insufficient selenium intake, the most notable effect is Keshan disease, an endemic cardiomyopathy in children.

Biomonitoring equivalents for hexachlorobenzene
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2010Recent efforts worldwide have resulted in a growing database of measured concentrations of chemicals in blood and urine samples taken from the general population. However, few tools exist to assist in the interpretation of the measured values in a health risk context.

Biomonitoring Equivalents for molybdenum
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2016Molybdenum is an essential trace element for mammalian, plant, and other animal systems. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has established an Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) to assure sufficient molybdenum intakes for human populations; however excessive exposures can cause toxicity.
