CREED, JOHN T., P. A. CREED, S. YATHAVAKILLA, S. CONKLIN, AND C. GALLAWA. DIETARY ARSENIC EXPOSURE ASSESSMENT USING ENZYMATIC BASED EXTRACTION CONDITIONS AND DETECTION OF URINARY THIO-ARSENICALS AS METABOLITES OF EXPOSURE. Presented at 7th International Conference of Environmental and Biological Aspects of Main-Group Organometallics, Heraklion, GREECE, October 10 - 12, 2006.
Impact/Purpose:
The goal is to develop an extraction protocol that mimics the human digestive tract and then to use it to assess the bioavailable fraction of arsenic from complex dietary mixtures such as a daily composite -- to move current methods toward a better human physiologically-based exposure estimate method which approximates the "true" bioavailability of arsenic within an environmental or dietary matrix.
