Human biomonitoring has played an important role in assessing human exposure to micro-
organic contaminants (MOCs), including chlorinated persistent organic pollutants …

Awareness of the adverse effects of exposure to pollutant mixtures, possibly much more
severe than individual chemicals, has drawn attention towards the necessity of using multi …

This report reviews past research on hair analysis development for organic contaminants
from the point of view of analytical procedures, successful applications and their limitations …

Hair has recently emerged as a biospecimen for characterizing the long-term chemical
exposome in biomonitoring investigations spanning several months, as chemical …

Human hair has increasingly been used as a noninvasive biomonitoring matrix for
assessment of human exposure to various organic contaminants (OCs). However, the …

This paper presents the current state of the art in human hair analysis for the detection of
organic pollutants associated with environmental and occupational exposure. The different …

The main aim of this article is to investigate the possibility of using human hair as a
biomarker with particular emphasis on persistent organic pollutants (POPs). We report …

Human hair as a biologic measure of exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has
some advantages over the more commonly used blood and adipose tissue samples …

Hair is a unique biological matrix that adsorbs short-term exposures (eg, environmental
contaminants and personal care products) on its surface and also embeds endogenous …

Recent years have seen growing interest in hair sample analysis to detect organic pollutants
(OPs). This biological matrix can be analysed non-invasively for biomonitoring of OPs over a …
