2 Exposure Assessment (in the exposure-disease continuum) Ambient Monitoring Medical Assessment external exposure chemicals: model calculations, including - various sources of exposure (known and unknown) - routes of exposure (oral, inhalative, dermal) health effects in air, soil, water, diet, consumer products Exposure and Risk Estimation adapted from: Biological Monitoring- Prospects in ccupational and Environmental Medicine Angerer and Weiss (eds.), Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, 1. Edition (2002) 2
