Harmonized human biomonitoring in European children, teenagers and adults: EU-w...
Govarts, Eva; Gilles, Liese; Rodriguez Martin, Laura; Santonen, Tiina; Apel, Petra; Alvito, Paula; Anastasi, Elena; Andersen, Helle RaunAs one of the core elements of the European Human Biomonitoring Initiative (HBM4EU) a human biomonitoring (HBM) survey was conducted in 23 countries to generate EU-wide comparable HBM data. This survey has built on existing HBM capacity in Europe by aligning national or regional HBM studies, referred to as the HBM4EU Aligned Studies. The HBM4EU Aligned Studies included a total of 10,795 participants from three ...

Cadmium exposure in adults across Europe: Results from the HBM4EU Aligned Studi...
Snoj Tratnik, Janja; Kocman, David; Horvat, Milena; Andersson, Anna-Maria; Juul, Anders; Jacobsen, Eva; Olafsdottir, Kristin; Klanova, JanaThe objectives of the study were to estimate the current exposure to cadmium (Cd) in Europe, potential differences between the countries and geographic regions, determinants of exposure and to derive European exposure levels. The basis for this work was provided by the European Human Biomonitoring Initiative (HBM4EU) which established a framework for alignment of national or regional HBM studies. For the purpos...
Trends of Exposure to Acrylamide as Measured by Urinary Biomarkers Levels withi...
Poteser, Michael; Laguzzi, Federica; Schettgen, Thomas; Vogel, Nina; Weber, Till; Murawski, Aline; Schmidt, Phillipp; Rüther, MariaAcrylamide, a substance potentially carcinogenic in humans, represents a very prevalent contaminant in food and is also contained in tobacco smoke. Occupational exposure to higher concentrations of acrylamide was shown to induce neurotoxicity in humans. To minimize related risks for public health, it is vital to obtain data on the actual level of exposure in differently affected segments of the population. To a...
Time Trends of Acrylamide Exposure in Europe: Combined Analysis of Published Re...
Poteser, Michael; Laguzzi, Federica; Schettgen, Thomas; Vogel, Nina; Weber, Till; Zimmermann, Philipp; Hahn, Domenica; Kolossa-Gehring, MarikeMore than 20 years ago, acrylamide was added to the list of potential carcinogens found in many common dietary products and tobacco smoke. Consequently, human biomonitoring studies investigating exposure to acrylamide in the form of adducts in blood and metabolites in urine have been performed to obtain data on the actual burden in different populations of the world and in Europe. Recognizing the related health...
