Human biomonitoring data has been the subject of an explosion in knowledge and literature over the past two decades. Workgroups, workshops, and symposiums have been established to cover all aspects of biomonitoring. One such workgroup, established by the Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (HESI) of the International Life Sciences Institute, created a wheel with biomonitoring as its hub, and its spokes represent the purposes of biomonitoring. The biomonitoring wheel will undoubtedly get a new spoke as it rolls and speeds up. Nowadays, Human Biomonitoring (HBM) of dose and biochemical effect is extremely useful and offers a quick and inexpensive way to measure human exposure to chemicals. In addition to establishing exposure distribution among the general population, identifying vulnerable groups and populations with greater exposures, and identifying environmental concerns at specific contaminated sites, HBM can do all of these things for comparatively little money.
