Exposure assessment Planning

About this webinar:

Exposure assessments are conducted for a variety of reasons. The design of the strategy should be consistent with the underlying purpose of the assessment and how the resulting data will be used. Collecting samples without fully understanding how the results will be utilized and communicated can result in obtaining information that maybe misinterpreted or misleading. Prior to collecting field samples, it is necessary to clearly understand the purpose and objectives of sampling projects.

The purpose of the data collection, in conjunction with the availability and cost of field and laboratory analytic techniques, as well as the time sensitivity of the results, will determine the overall sampling strategy.
