IRIS Toxicological Review of Inorganic Arsenic (Public Comment and External Review Draft)
Description:
EPA is developing an Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) health assessment of Inorganic Arsenic. EPA’s draft IRIS Inorganic Arsenic assessment includes a hazard identification analysis, which summarizes the chemical properties, toxicokinetics, and health effects associated with exposure, and dose-response analysis, which characterizes the quantitative relationship between chemical exposure and each credible health hazard. These quantitative relationships are then used to derive cancer and noncancer toxicity values (e.g., inhalation unit risk, reference concentration). Once finalized, the outcome of this project will be an IRIS Toxicological Review of Inorganic Arsenic that will be entered into the IRIS database and may be used to support decisions to protect human health and the environment.
