HBM4EU-MOM: Prenatal methylmercury-exposure control in five countries through s...
Katsonouri, Andromachi; Gabriel, Catherine; Esteban López, Marta; Namorado, Sónia; Halldorsson, Thorhallur; Snoj Tratnik, Janja; Rodriguez Martin, LauraBackground: Seafood is a major source of vital nutrients for optimal fetal growth, but at the same time is the main source of exposure to methylmercury (MeHg), an established neurodevelopmental toxicant. Pregnant women must be provided with dietary advice so as to include safely fish in their diet for nutrition and mercury control. The aim of this work is to present the design of a multicentre randomized contro...
How to use human biomonitoring in chemical risk assessment: Methodological aspe...
Santonen, Tiina; Mahiout, Selma; Alvito, Paula; Apel, Petra; Bessems, Jos; Bil, Wieneke; Borges, Teresa; Bose-O'Reilly, Stephan; Buekers, JurgenThe need for such information is pressing, as previous research has indicated that regulatory risk assessors generally lack knowledge and experience of the use of HBM data in RA. By recognising this gap in expertise, as well as the added value of incorporating HBM data into RA, this paper aims to support the integration of HBM into regulatory RA. Based on the work of the HBM4EU, we provide examples of different...

A Tiered Approach for Assessing Individual and Combined Risk of Pyrethroids Usi...
Tarazona, Jose; Cattaneo, Irene; Niemann, Lars; Pedraza-Diaz, Susana; González-Caballero, MCarmen; Alba-Gonzalez, Mercedes de; Cañas, AnaPyrethroids are a major insecticide class, suitable for biomonitoring in humans. Due to similarities in structure and metabolic pathways, urinary metabolites are common to various active substances. A tiered approach is proposed for risk assessment. Tier I was a conservative screening for overall pyrethroid exposure, based on phenoxybenzoic acid metabolites. Subsequently, probabilistic approaches and more speci...
