Myexposome Inc. received a $449,958 Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences to develop a route of exposure model using silicone wristbands as personal samplers. The grant is part of the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113), which aims to foster understanding of human health effects from environmental exposures. Under the award, Myexposome will utilize multiple silicone wristband configurations in a field demonstration among up to 30 individuals to study atmospheric and contact absorption of over 1,500 chemicals. They will also build a prototype model to predict dominant routes of exposure based on chemical characteristics. With two samplers per participant, up to 60 samples will be screened to create a dataset of personal exposures. This will lay the foundation for developing robust exposure models to further the goals of the Environmental Health program.
