Population Levels of Chemicals of Concern

http://www.cdc.gov/exposurereport/pdf/thirdreport_summary.pdf

BrooklynDodger(s) comment: On the ATSDR website is valuable information about population levels of various chemicals of concern - dioxins, pcbs, phthalates, toxic metals, pesticides, PAC metabolites. Present levels may pose a risk - the population rate of diseases includes those caused by these agents - but the risk could only be discovered in humans if there were populations with materially higher exposures than those found in the reference population.
