Reducing glyphosate exposure from high use practices

该项目旨在研究减少职业接触草甘膦的方法，草甘膦是一种普遍存在的污染物，正在引起人们的关注。这将通过开发新的具有成本效益的分析和采样工具以及改进方法来实现，以将人类接触（生物监测）数据与关于草甘膦接触途径的监测数据相结合。该项目将产生关于澳大利亚和全球特定（亚）人群化学品接触的新的有针对性的知识。这些数据对于为公共卫生和化学品管制政策提供信息、提供旨在减少接触的明确指导、评估现有条例的有效性以及为今后开展调查提供框架至关重要。

This project aims to investigate methods of reducing occupational exposure to glyphosate, a ubiquitous pollutant of emerging concern. This will be achieved through developing new cost-effective analytical and sampling tools and refining methods for integrating human exposure (biomonitoring) data with surveillance data on the pathways of glyphosate exposure from high use. The project will generate new targeted knowledge on (sub) population-specific chemical exposures in Australia, and globally. Such data are critical to inform public health and chemical regulation policy, and provide clear guidance aimed at reducing exposures, to assess the effectiveness of existing regulations, and provide a framework for implementing surveys in the future.
