Chemicals Biomonitored in California

Biomonitoring California selects specific chemicals to measure in each of our projects.  See the list below for chemicals we currently biomonitor.

Factors that determine whether a chemical is measured in a particular project include:

  • Recommendation as a priority chemical by the Scientific Guidance Panel
  • Public health importance
  • Relevance of the chemical to the group of people being studied in a particular project
  • Laboratory considerations
  • Feasibility and available Program resources
