Exposure Assessment and Risk Characterization for Perfluorooctanoate in Selected Consumer Articles

Environmental Science & Technology, 2005
An exposure assessment and risk characterization was conducted to better understand the potential human health significance of trace levels of perfluorooctanoate (PFO) detected in certain consumer articles. PFO is the anion of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). Concentrations of PFO in the consumer articles were determined from extraction tests and product

Significance of metabolites in the environmental risk assessment of pharmaceuticals consumed by human

Science of The Total Environment, 2017
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the significance of metabolites to the ERA of human pharmaceuticals. The predicted exposure concentrations (PECs) in surface water were estimated for a total of 24 selected active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and their metabolites using a life cycle based emission estimation model combined with a ...

Assessing the risks of pesticide residues to consumers: recent and future developments

Food Additives and Contaminants, 2001
Assessing exposure of consumers to pesticide residues is an area of regulatory science that has rapidly developed over the last decade. From simplistic, deterministic models calculating lifetime exposure for adults only, assessment procedures have diversified so that more realistic estimates of long term exposures for adults, schoolchildren, toddlers ...
