| Under certain conditions, exposures to specific chemicals present in one's environment, can lead to disease. Risk assessment methodology can be applied to control allowable chemical concentration in the environment and thus, amounts that add to exposures. These papers explore on one hand, the end point exposure effects of specific chemicals and on another, the tools of risk assessment. Prevention methods will also be presented. | |||
| Learning Objectives: 1. Provide studies of consequences after exposures to specific chemicals 2. Outline application of risk assessment and related tools 3. Explore measures to prevent or ameliorate exposures that can lead to disease | |||
