Human Exposure Assessment

Human Exposure Assessment evaluates how people come into contact with environmental contaminants like pollutants or chemicals. It considers the sources of exposure (air, water, food, skin contact), how often and how long exposure occurs, and the levels of contaminants involved. The goal is to estimate potential health risks by understanding the amount of a substance people are exposed to over time. This process helps regulators and scientists develop strategies to reduce harmful exposures and protect public health effectively.
