The aim of this LIEF is to advance Australia’s specimen banking capabilities through a new, enhanced national facility, the Australian Environmental Specimen Bank (AESB). The AESB would be founded on a unique current archive of human and environmental samples established by the partners to the LIEF. Importantly, the AESB would be managed as a nationally available (to all public sector researchers), operationally self-funded resource for integrated exposure research into the future. The archive is expected to support longitudinal and cross-sectional studies to assess trends in exposure to chemical and biological hazards in the Australian population, identify emerging hazards, and provide a scientific basis for policy and regulatory actions.

该环境标本基金的目的是通过一个新的、增强的国家设施——澳大利亚环境标本银行（AESB）来提高澳大利亚的标本银行能力。AESB将建立在生物环境基金合作伙伴建立的独特的人类和环境样本档案的基础上。重要的是，AESB将作为全国（所有公共部门研究人员）可获得的、业务上自筹资金的资源进行管理，用于未来的综合暴露研究。该档案预计将支持纵向和横向研究，以评估澳大利亚人口暴露于化学和生物危害的趋势，识别新出现的危害，并为政策和监管行动提供科学依据。
