The Protection of Subjects in Human Research rule by the USEPA,
including the establishment of the Human Studies Review Board
(HSRB), has resulted in changes to both study design and study
evaluation processes, particularly with respect to ethical
considerations. Non-Dietary Human Exposure andRisk Assessment is a
compilation of the presentations given in a symposium of the same
name at the 238th ACS National Meeting in Washington D.C. The
purpose of the symposium was to provide a forum for scientists from
industry, academia, and government to share investigative methods
used to generate data for use in non-dietary human risk assessments
and to share methodology for performing and evaluating those
assessments.
This compilation is intended to provide the reader with a concise
overview of the current status of both the scientific and
regulatory aspects of non-dietary human exposure and risk
assessment as applied to pesticides. It is the hope of the editors
that it will also be the starting point for discussions leading to
the further refinement of study and risk assessment design, data
evaluation, and regulatory harmonization.
Three major areas are covered in this symposium edition. The first
area is regulatory issues including the development of the
Protection of Subjects in Human Research rule and the HSRB,
statistical procedures involved in designing human exposure
studies, handling of the data generated in those studies, and
quality assurance processes related to worker exposure studies. The
second area, study design, includes processes for the
identification and recruitment of volunteers for human exposure
studies, overviews of several studies that have been recently
performed, the development of procedures for evaluating the
resulting data by Regulatory Agencies, and efforts towards
international cooperation in the generation and use of exposure
data. The final area, methodology, includes examples of the
development of methods for the analysis of samples generated in
non-dietary human exposure studies with particular emphasis on the
use of hyphenated techniques and the development of a model for
determining greenhouse exposures that is currently being used in
Europe.
