ConsExpo

This page provides a description and a link to a "ConsExpo" modeling tool that can be used for modeling exposure levels or information needed in exposure assessment.

Short Description

ConsExpo is a set of coherent, general models that enables the estimation and assessment of the exposure to substances from consumer products and their uptake by humans. Data about the application of products and data from mathematical models are used to build up the program. The program is based on relatively simple exposure and uptake models. Using ConsExpo, it is possible to calculate the exposure to consumer products in a standardized way. ConsExpo can carry out not only calculations with point values but also calculations with distributions and for both acute and chronic situations. Sensitivity analyses can be carried out as well.
