With the global decline in use of polybrominated diphenyl ethers, demand for alternative flame retardants, such as triphenylphosphate (TPP), has increased substantially. Triphenylphosphate is now detected various environments including aquatic ecosystems worldwide. However, studies on toxicological consequences chronic TPP exposure organisms are scarce. The zebrafish model was used to investigate effects long-term endocrine system. Zebrafish embryos were exposed 5 µg/L, 50 or 500 µg/L 120 d,...

Personal care products and cosmetics have been identified as major sources of paraben exposure among humans. However, the contribution dietary factors has not well understood. We recruited temple stay participants (n = 25) who followed a strict Buddhist vegetarian diet during five-day period, assessed influence this lifestyle change, employing their urine samples collected before after stay. Before stay, methylparaben (MeP) was detected at highest levels, by ethylparaben (EtP), propylparaben...

This study aims to examine the gender gaps in use of urban space Seoul, Korea, provide empirical evidence for planning equality. We analyzed daily temporary populations that were estimated using mobile phone data. used total, women’s, and men’s as well subtraction population men from women (SMW) dependent variables. first conducted a visual analysis on density kernel estimation then further spatial autocorrelation indicators regression models. The results demonstrate that: (1) Temporary...

Objectives: Children may be more exposed to certain environmental contaminants because they react with greater sensitivity and have different food intakes breathing rate per unit of body weight compared adults. The aim this study was determine general exposure factors such as skin surface area, period frequency exposure, others among Korean children aged <TEX>${\leq}18$</TEX> years old. This carried out the first its kind in Korea. Methods: We developed 23 recommended for 0 18 by...

Reliable exposure factors are essential to determine health risks posed by chemicals in consumer products. We analyzed five risk-concerned product categories (anti-fogging, dye, disinfectant, repellent, and preservative products) for 13 products (three car anti-fogging products, a lens product, two dye drain disinfectants, an air conditioner chlorine-based fabric insect repellent food, wood preservative) considered be of high risk order via web surveys estimation amount product. Among the...

Objectives: Risk assessment is a tool for predicting and reducing uncertainty related to the effects of future activities. Probability approaches are main elements in risk assessment, but confusion about interpretation use factors often undermines message analyses. The aim this study provide guideline systematic reduction plans regarding assessment. Methods: Articles reports were collected online using key words "uncertainty analysis" on Uncertainty analysis was conducted based focusing...

Objectives: Perchloroethylene (PCE) is a volatile chemical widely used as solvent in the dry-cleaning and textile processing industries. It was evaluated Group 2 "probably carcinogenic to humans" by Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) of United State Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) 2012. In order provide scientific basis for establishing risk management measures chemicals on national priority substances list, aggregate assessment conducted PCE, included top-10 substances....

Objectives: Microcystin (MC) produced during cyanobacterial blooms is a worldwide problem presenting serious health threats to humans and ecosystems. During July through October of 2013, the Ilwol Reservoir experienced high biomass phytoplankton (maximum <TEX>$211.7mg/m^3$</TEX> Chlorophyll-a) containing toxigenic cyanobacterium Oscillatoria sp. The aim this study analyze MC concentration in reservoir water, as well representative fish species (Carassius cuvieri, Carassius auratus, Channa...
