Biomonitoring – Analytical Standards for Human Exposure Analysis

CIL recognizes that many organic contaminants are not only environmental pollutants, but may also be food and water contaminants, and ultimately compounds of concern in human exposure studies (exposomics). CIL has and continues to produce standards that fit the needs of leading exposomics research programs. A few of these leading and emerging programs are highlighted below. Each program is linked to its respective website where full background and program details can be accessed. 

• US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)
• Japan National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES) Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS)
• The European Environment Agency and the European Commission HBM4EU
• The Institute for Exposomic Research at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
• National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS)-funded Human Health Exposure Analysis Resource (HHEAR)
• Advancing Tools for Human Early Lifecourse Exposome Research and Translation (ATHLETE)
