INTRODUCTION According to the OECD IPCS definitions listed in Annex 1 OECD 2003a Exposure assessment is Evaluation of the exposure of an organism system or sub population to an agent and its derivatives . Exposure Assessment is the third step in the process of risk assessment. The term human exposure means contact with a substance and has been defined by US-EPA as taking place at the visible external boundary of the person . skin and openings into the body such as mouth and nostrils US-EPA 1992 . An exposure assessment is the quantitative or qualitative evaluation of the amount of a substance that humans come into contact with and includes consideration of the intensity frequency and duration of contact the route of exposure . dermal oral or respiratory rates chemical intake or uptake rates the resulting amount that actually crosses the boundary a dose and the amount absorbed internal dose . Depending on the purpose of an exposure assessment the numerical output may be an estimate of the intensity rate duration and frequency of contact exposure or dose the resulting amount that actually crosses the boundary . For risk assessments of chemical substances based on dose-response relationships the output usually includes an estimate of dose WHO IPCS 1999 . In most cases the substance coming into contact with the outer boundary of the body is contained in air water soil or a consumer product. The substance concentration in these media at the point of contact . the exposure is the concentration on which exposure estimates are based. The most accurate exposure assessment would give information on the amount of a specific substance at the target site in the body where toxicity occurs the biologically effective doses.
