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 ...

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...
Innovating in the exposure and risk assessment of chemical contaminants – explo...
Silva, Maria João; Koutsodimou, Aglaia; Namorado, Sónia; Dessipri, Eugenia; Alygisakis, Nikiforos; Rousselle, Christophe; Sanders, PascalThe prevalence of many human diseases can be drastically reduced through the identification and prevention of environmental risk factors. This fact constitutes a strong incentive to innovate in the exposure and hazard assessment of chemicals, through all available knowledge and technologies, towards a next-generation risk assessment (NGRA). The European Partnership for the Assessment of Risks from Chemicals (PA...
Human biomonitoring in health risk assessment in Europe: current practices and ...
Louro, Henriqueta; Heinälä, Milla; Bessems, Jos; Buekers, Jurgen; Vermeire, Theo; Woutersen, Marjolijn; van Engelen, Jacqueline; Borges, TeresaHuman biomonitoring (HBM) is an important tool to survey the internal exposure of humans which represents the real-life chemical body burden to chemicals and/or their metabolites. It results from total exposure to chemical substances from different sources and via different routes. These substances may be regulated under different legislative frameworks on chemicals (e.g., environmental, occupational, food safe...
