Book Human Health Risk Assessment of Unregulated Organic Compounds in New Jersey Drinking Water

Download or read book Human Health Risk Assessment of Unregulated Organic Compounds in New Jersey Drinking Water written by Diann Lynne Blanset and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considerable quantities of organic chemicals are used by industry and consumers each year in the United States, creating the potential for contamination of limited fresh water supplies with a wide variety of organic chemicals. Although drinking water standards have been established for many organic chemicals, there is a potential for contamination of water sources with unregulated chemicals. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), in conjunction with Rutgers University, has conducted a survey of public drinking water systems and has detected over 600 unregulated organic compounds in water samples from these systems. To evaluate the potential human health effects from drinking water exposure to these chemicals, a review of the scientific literature for toxicology data was conducted during this project. Toxicology data were not available for the majority of the chemicals, limiting the ability to assess the potential human health effects from drinking water exposure. Sufficient data were available to establish health based water criteria for 40 chemicals. The calculated drinking water criteria for these chemicals were greater than 1 ppb indicating that the chemicals are unlikely to present a risk to human health when present in drinking water at concentrations

Book Risk Assessment for Chemicals in Drinking Water

Download or read book Risk Assessment for Chemicals in Drinking Water written by Robert A. Howd and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-11-16 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive reference on state-of-the-art risk assessment methodologies for drinking water Risk Assessment for Chemicals in Drinking Water discusses the major steps and goals in risk assessments and suggests ways to improve the methodologies and accuracy, while consolidating up-to-date information on the current principles and practices in one authoritative reference. After an enlightening overview of risk assessment practices and regulatory guidelines, it: Includes descriptions of the use of variability analysis, exposure analysis, physiologically based pharmacokinetics, and modeling for both cancer and non-cancer endpoints Describes the practices of major organizations, including the U.S. EPA, Health Canada, World Health Organization, and California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment Includes complete chapters on risk assessment for essential nutrients, arsenic, chloroform, and perchlorate Explains how to address susceptible sub-populations, including the elderly and infants and children, in risk assessments Covers the potential of using genomic and proteomic screens Addresses recent advances, emerging issues, and future challenges With contributions and perspectives from leading scientists, this is the definitive resource for health and environmental scientists, toxicologists, risk assessors and managers, regulators, consultants, and other professionals responsible for the safety of drinking water.

Book Drinking Water and Health  Volume 9

Download or read book Drinking Water and Health Volume 9 written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1989-02-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Research Council closes the landmark series Drinking Water and Health with Volume 9, published in two parts: Part I: DNA Adducts provides an overview of DNA adducts and their effects on human health, explores the techniques currently in use for detecting them, offers an outlook on future toxicity testing, and lists specific recommendations for action. Part II: Mixtures explores the issues surrounding multiple-chemical exposure from drinking water and reviews options for grouping compounds so their toxicity in mixtures can be reliably assessed. The book describes alternative approaches and considers the option of developing a modified "hazard index" for chemical compounds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most recent volume in the Drinking Water and Health series contains the results of a two-part study on the toxicity of drinking water contaminants. The first part examines current practices in risk assessment, identifies new noncancerous toxic responses to chemicals found in drinking water, and discusses the use of pharmacokinetic data to estimate the delivered dose and response. The second part of the book provides risk assessments for 14 specific compounds, 9 presented here for the first time.

Book Drinking Water Health Advisory

Download or read book Drinking Water Health Advisory written by Jennifer Orme-Zavaleta and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1990-11-16 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health Advisories (HAs) are prepared by the Criteria and Standards Division, Office of Drinking Water (ODW) of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) in Washington, D.C. Documents summarized in this volume are part of the Health Advisory Program sponsored by ODW in response to the public need for guidance during emergency situations involving drinking water contamination. They provide technical guidance to public health officials on health effects, analytical methodologies, and treatment technologies associated with drinking water contamination. The HAs for 15 unregulated volatile organic chemicals were developed jointly by the Environmental Criteria and Assessment Office and ODW. Each HA contains information regarding the nature of adverse health effects associated with the contaminant and contaminant concentrations that would not be anticipated to cause an adverse effect following various periods of exposure. In addition, the HA summarizes information on occurrence, analytical methods, environmental fate, and treatment techniques for the contaminant.
