Conference on Current Issues of Chemical Mixtures

Abstract

Between 11 and 13 August 1997, a conference on Current Issues of Chemical Mixtures was held and hosted at Fort Collins, Colorado, by the Colorado State University (CSU) and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Superfund Basic Research Program (SBRP). Other sponsors of the conference included the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (both the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response and the Region VIII Office), the U.S. Army Center for Environmental Health Research, and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). Over 160 participants, coming from Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and the U.S., are scientists, engineers, policy makers, and individuals with a profound interest in the issues related to hazardous waste disposal and contamination. The Conference consisted of six sessions: (1) Overview of Human Health and Regulatory Problems Related to Chemical Mixture Exposures; (2) Biomedical Advances on Chemical Mixtures I; (3) Biomedical Advances on Chemical Mixtures II; (4) Methodological Advances on the Toxicology of Chemical Mixtures; (5) Ecological and Engineering Advances on Chemical Mixture Research; and (6) Risk Assessment Issues Related to Hazardous Waste Chemical Mixtures.
