Human biomonitoring provides critical insights into how environmental and dietary contaminants affect the human body. At Eurofins Food & Feed Testing, we support industry stakeholders in assessing internal exposure to harmful substances such as dioxins, PCBs, per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), brominated flame retardants and other persistent organic pollutants.
Key services
- Detection and quantification of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), such as of dioxins and PCBs in human matrices such as blood (plasma, serum, whole blood), breast milk, and adipose tissue.
- Tailored exposure studies for specific populations, including dietary exposure assessments.
- Determination of baseline contaminant levels in selected population groups to support risk assessment and regulatory compliance.
- Expert interpretation of biomonitoring data to assess health risks and support decision-making.
- Sample logistics and study design support for national and international biomonitoring projects.
Additional services
- Food and feed contaminant testing to support upstream exposure assessments.
- Toxicological risk assessment for regulatory submissions or internal safety reviews.
- Digital Data Management via the Eurofins Online Service (EOL).
- Consulting and scientific reporting for authorities, stakeholders, or publication.
