    Snippet: By applying the OH approach to this body of research, investigators were able to assess risk from individual exposure pathways as well as total risk from all pathways (i.e. cumulative exposures). This study was able to determine cumulative ingestion exposure from consumption of pollutants in drinking water, as well as through ingesting exposed fish, crops, and livestock. In addition, risks associated with other exposure pathways, i.e. via air or .....
    Document: By applying the OH approach to this body of research, investigators were able to assess risk from individual exposure pathways as well as total risk from all pathways (i.e. cumulative exposures). This study was able to determine cumulative ingestion exposure from consumption of pollutants in drinking water, as well as through ingesting exposed fish, crops, and livestock. In addition, risks associated with other exposure pathways, i.e. via air or contact with soil, could be evaluated in conjunction with ingestion-related risk to estimate total risk. This case study illustrates that consideration of connections among environmental, animal and human health facilitates a more comprehensive health risk assessment which has the ability to reflect cumulative exposures.
