Hexachlorobenzene is ubiquitous in air, water, soil, and biological matrices, as well as in major environmental compartments. Exposure to this substance is a public health concern because of its association with a wide range of adverse health effects. The International Agency for Research on Cancer...
In this assessment of hexachlorobenzene as a Priority Substance under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, estimates of the average total daily intake of the general population are presented and available data on potential health effects are evaluated. Based on the sufficient weight of evidence of...
Concentrations of plasma per and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are elevated in the Inuit population of Nunavik and may be causing adverse health effects. Respiratory health outcomes have been associated with PFAS, but have not been explored in Inuit communities. The aim of the study was to ...
In this assessment of "cadmium and its compounds" as a Priority Substance under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, available data on exposure and potential health effects of various forms of cadmium likely to be present in the environment were critically evaluated. Based largely on the carcin...
Hexachlorobenzene ~(13)C_6 was used as internal standard. Study participants also completed a questionnaire on the use of cosmetics, about nutrition and other life-style aspects.rnThe two substances which could be detected in higher percentages of the blood plasma samples were galax...

Well-designed longitudinal studies are necessary to better understand trends, health effects, and effectiveness of interventions to reduce PFAS exposure [52]. For these reasons, we give more focus on findings from longitudinal studies in this review. Overall, there were differences in study population...

Environmental exposures during pregnancy and early life may have adverse health effects. Single birth cohort studies often lack statistical power to tease out such effects reliably. To improve the use of existing data and to facilitate collaboration among these studies, an inventory of the environmental...
