Zusammenfassung

This book offers an introduction to risk assessment of chemicals and contains basic background information on sources, emissions, distribution and fate processes for the estimation of exposure of plant and animal species in the environment and humans exposed via the environment, consumer products, and at the workplace. It includes chapters on environmental chemistry, toxicology and ecotoxicology as well as information on data requirements, data estimation methodologies and intelligent testing strategies. Coverage describes the basic principles and methods of risk assessment in their legislative frameworks (EU, USA, Japan and Canada).

This second edition reflects the progress and experience gained in the last decade and again aims at providing background and training material for a new generation of risk assessors.
