Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will focus on the emerging and comprehensive methods for biomonitoring and study results of various populations, including variety in geographic locations, life stage, population demographics (e.g., sex, general population, race/ethnicity), and exposure pathways (e.g., prenatal, dietary, non-dietary ingestion, occupation, accidental). The Special Issue seeks to highlight newer and emerging chemicals, but methods and data from more traditional toxicants will also be accepted. In addition, exposure-outcome studies, especially evaluating mixtures will be encouraged.
