Abstract

An ongoing problem for agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is that of providing guidance as to health risk assessment of mixtures from a variety of sources such as wastewaters, hazardous waste sites, air particulates, or materials spilled in waters or soils. In the absence of data on the mixture in question and its particular matrix, some approach using surrogates must be taken.
