  5. Human Ecology Challenges (EPA) Life stage Low Dose Acute Cumulative Improving human exposure assessment Applying novel biological data: Toxic genomic Human Health Risk Assessment Characterizing uncertainty (weight of evidence) Estimating risk from diverse exposure scenarios: M. Wentz, Oeko-Tex (USA) - AAFA/RSL

  6. What is a “Poison” ?“Dose makes the Poison” “All things are poison, and nothing is without poison. It is the dose only that makes a thing not a poison.” Paracelsus (1494-1541) M. Wentz, Oeko-Tex (USA) - AAFA/RSL
