Description
It has long been recognized that real exposures of people and non-human biota are generally two mixtures of chemicals, rather than two pure entities. In spite of this, evaluations in the field or laboratory have frequently only looked at single chemicals. Therefore, this book sets out to identify the limitations, practicalities and utility of dealing with chemicals in mixtures. It is the first systematic attempt to examine methods for evaluating mixtures of chemicals. This is a particularly difficult task and complete success cannot be claimed. However, suggestions for further study and research are made which may help to improve the approach to the subject. This book has been prepared by the Scientific Group on Methodologies for the Safety Evaluation of Chemicals (SGOMSEC).
