Biomonitoring Summaries

Biomonitoring Summaries are intended to provide a brief general overview about the chemical or chemical group, including usage, environmental pathways, sources of exposure, toxicology, health effects, and human exposure information. Biomonitoring Summaries have been developed for most of the chemicals measured in the National Report on Human Exposure to Environmental Chemicals. Additional sources of scientific information and reports are provided as references.
