Regional differences in health exposure risk of indoor benzene series and safety threshold determination for the Chinese population

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Indoor benzene series (BTEX) pollution from building and decoration materials poses growing health risks during China's urbanization. Nationwide multi-scenario exposure assessments remain limited, and the risk-based thresholds for benzene and ...
