- 1From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedHuman biomonitoring (analysis of biological fluids) is increasingly being used for assessing exposure to environmental pollutants. Smoking tobacco is a significant source of indoor air pollution and is harmful to human...
- 2From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedExposure assessment analyses conducted in Europe have concluded that the primary pathway of exposure to di(2- ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is through the diet. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether urinary...
- 3From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedAn inaccurate evaluation of exposure is considered a possible cause for the inadequate conclusiveness of epidemiological research on adverse effects of extremely low frequency-magnetic fields (ELF-MF). The objective of...

PBDE exposure from food in Ireland: optimising data exploitation in probabilistic exposure modelling
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a class of brominated flame retardants added to plastics, polyurethane foam, electronics, textiles, and other products. These products release PBDEs into the indoor and outdoor... - 5From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedPrenatal exposure to dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE) is associated with decreased motor development during the first year of life, though the effects of DDE in the neonatal stage are not conclusive. The main aim...
- 6From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedParabens are used extensively in personal care products; however, their estrogenic properties have raised concern over risks to human health. High levels of total parabens, mainly as conjugates, have been reported in...
- 7From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedThe creatinine correction approach has been used to estimate daily intake for contaminants whose primary route of elimination is through urine. This method is challenged using the phthalate di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate...
- 8From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedPrimary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is highly prevalent in China. Although hepatitis B virus (HBV) and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) are considered the major risk factors, among the high-risk cohorts only a small fraction...
- 9From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedDespite substantial attention toward environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure, previous studies have not provided adequate information to apply broadly within community-scale risk assessments. We aim to estimate...
- 10From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedFor 30 years, there have been suggestions that extremely low frequency magnetic fields such as those are produced by electric power systems may be associated with elevated risks of childhood leukemia. These suggestions...
- 11From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedResidential dust has been used as a medium for assessing human exposures to a constellation of indoor contaminants including radionuclides, persistent organic pollutants, metals, allergens, and tobacco smoke. Here, we...
- 12From: Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology. (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedToluene diisocyanate (TDI) is a well-known cause of occupational asthma, but we know little about the potential for exposure and health effects among residents who live near facilities that release TDI. In the...
