Environmental Risk Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses analytical methods to investigate chemical exposure and its effects on living organisms.
AboutAbout the lab
Investigating chemical exposure and its biological effects through analysis
The Environmental Risk Lab is a collaborative program of the Graduate School of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences (Pharmaceutical Sciences) at Chiba University, and its partner institution is the National Institute for Environmental Studies.
The faculty's primary appointments are at the partner institution, the National Institute for Environmental Studies.
The lab's field is the assessment of chemical exposure and the effects of that exposure on living organisms.
Its research areas include developing methods for comprehensive analysis of exposure to many kinds of chemicals, including newly emerging ones, and developing human biomonitoring methods.
Using analytical toxicology methods, the lab also works to clarify the metabolic mechanisms of metalloid elements.
Key terms
- Exposure
- Being exposed to chemicals and other substances in the environment.
- Human biomonitoring
- A method that examines samples such as human blood and urine to measure how much of a chemical has entered the body.
- Metalloid elements
- Elements with properties intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab develops analytical methods for comprehensively determining exposure to many kinds of chemicals, including newly emerging ones, as well as methods for assessing their effects on health. The graduate school's overview of research areas also lists advancing emergency environmental survey methods for accidents and disasters, research on long-term trends of hazardous chemicals in urban air, and clarifying the metabolic mechanisms of metalloid elements.
