The author examines how environmental exposures to particular chemicals are related to concentrations of markers in body tissues and fluids. Biological Monitoring integrates the applied sciences of industrial\/environmental hygiene, epidemiology, public health, occupational medicine, toxicology, biochemistry, and analytical chemistry with the basic sciences to interpret the connections between exposures and lifestyle\/environmental influences, and their effects on humans. This comprehensive introduction provides dependable, detailed coverage of:\u003cbr\u003e * monitoring for harmful substances in the workplace\u003cbr\u003e * the benefits and limitations of testing for critical levels of toxic materials in bodily tissues and fluids\u003cbr\u003e * state-of-the-art developments in biological monitoring\u003cbr\u003e * a wide variety of toxic chemicals and selected physical agents\u003cbr\u003e * immunoassays\u003cbr\u003e * monitoring for HIV and AIDS\u003cbr\u003e * importance of exposure routes\u003cbr\u003e * the most up-to-date methods of health and medical surveillance\u003cbr\u003e * the interpretation of adduct concentrations\u003cbr\u003e * biological exposure indices\u003cbr\u003e * biological monitoring of pesticides\u003cbr\u003e * biological monitoring in the home and around hazardous waste sites\u003cbr\u003e * and much more\u003cbr\u003e This essential, compelling guide is the only inclusive and thorough introduction available.
