Xenobiotic Exposure

Many POPs have been banned or are now subject to strict controls under EU legislation, and the scope of these regulations continues to expand.

Our environment leaves a lasting impression on our health—often in ways we cannot see. POPs bioaccumulate, concentrating inside the bodies of living things and accumulate in food and human tissue.

For some POPs, even low levels have been linked to health issues e.g., increased cancer risk, reproductive disorders, endocrine (hormonal) disruption and increased birth defects.

Environmental Human Bio-Monitoring measures the actual concentration of environmental chemicals and contaminants within the human body. Test results will let you know if you have been exposed. Reducing exposure is the only solution in many cases. Workplaces protect their staff under Health & Safety measures. You can test your home for the source/s of exposure (air, dust, water & products) via our sister Environmental Testing Laboratories.
