Description

In this book, both basic and advanced concepts are discussed for considering mixtures from initial exposure characterization through evaluation of risk associated with combined exposures.�This book will provide an introduction to key issues and multiple options for evaluating both the toxicity of mixtures as well as the risk associated with exposure to mixtures.�Additionally, promising tools adapted from other disciplines will be discussed in the context of mixtures toxicology and risk assessment.�Finally, the discussion will move beyond chemical mixtures to address incorporating non-chemical stressors into toxicity studies and cumulative risk assessments.� Although exposure to multiple chemical and non-chemical stressors is the rule, not the exception, consideration of mixtures in toxicology and risk assessment continues to be a significant challenge. This book will be an essential resource for researchers and professionals in the fields of toxicology, epidemiology, exposure science,risk assessment, and statistics.Typham this is the title: Chemical Mixtures and Combined Chemical and Nonchemical Stressors Exposure, Toxicity, Analysis, and Risk
