Health, Pesticide Adjuvants, and Inert Ingredients: California Case Study Illustrates Need for Data Access Environ. Health Perspect. (IF 11.035) Pub Date : 2022-8-03 Caroline Cox, Michael Zeiss
Abstract Background: Many pesticide products are mixtures of multiple chemicals. These include active ingredients intended to kill pests, and so-called inert ingredients intended to improve the physical characteristics of the product. In addition, shortly before applying a pesticide product, applicators often mix adjuvants into the sprayer tank. Adjuvants are products designed to improve the performance

Internal Relative Potency Factors for the Risk Assessment of Mixtures of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Human Biomonitoring Environ. Health Perspect. (IF 11.035) Pub Date : 2022-7-26 Wieneke Bil, Marco J. Zeilmaker, Bas G.H. Bokkers
Abstract Background: In human biomonitoring, blood is often used as a matrix to measure exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Because the toxicokinetics of a substance (determining the steady-state blood concentration) may affect the toxic potency, the difference in toxicokinetics among PFAS has to be accounted for when blood concentrations are used in mixture risk assessment.

Short-Term Exposure to Wildfire Smoke and PM2.5 and Cognitive Performance in a Brain-Training Game: A Longitudinal Study of U.S. Adults Environ. Health Perspect. (IF 11.035) Pub Date : 2022-6-14 Stephanie E. Cleland, Lauren H. Wyatt, Linda Wei, Naman Paul, Marc L. Serre, J. Jason West, Sarah B. Henderson, Ana G. Rappold
Abstract Background: There is increasing evidence that long-term exposure to fine particulate matter [PM ≤2.5μm in aerodynamic diameter (PM2.5)] may adversely impact cognitive performance. Wildfire smoke is one of the biggest sources of PM2.5 and concentrations are likely to increase under climate change. However, little is known about how short-term exposure impacts cognitive function. Objectives:
