SOT’s 52nd Annual Meeting                                San Antonio, Texas   March 10th –14th 2013

This study attempts to refine the Risk Characterization Ratio (RCR) calculation comparing
Biomonitoring Equivalents (BEs) with tissue-specific Biologically Effective Dose (BED) of the
chemicals in question. This is expected to improve significantly the efficacy of risk assessment.

 - Very strong plasma protein binding


  - First-pass metabolism decisive for clearance – wide
 bioavailability differences are expected from routes
 beyond oral (up to six times higher internal dose
 concentrations for inhalation compared to oral)


 - BPA-GLU de-conjugates to BPA in the stomach,
 increasing the actual dose during breast feeding,
 thus, the sum of BPA and BPA-GLU needs to be taken
 into account as BPA dose during breast feeding

Conclusions
SOT’s 52nd Annual Meeting                                San Antonio, Texas   March 10th –14th 2013


         • Incorporating toxicokinetic considerations in animal to human extrapolation
           allows multiple options for minimizing uncertainty and unnecessary conservatism,
           based on whether uncertainty and knowledge gaps are related mostly to MOA or
           toxicokinetics

         • Identification of inter-individual differences in bioavailability related to
             - inter-individual variability of enzyme related genotypes
             - windows of developmental susceptibility (e.g. pregnancy and infancy) due to
                immature detoxification processes
             - route of administration
             might be more important than inter-species differences

         • Refinement of RCR should rely not only on the accurate identification of
           toxicological thresholds, but also on the relevance of exposure scenarios in terms
           of age groups and administration route.
         • This way, unnecessary conservatism (e.g oral exposure scenarios for adults
           exposed to levels marginally above TDI) is avoided and exposure scenarios
           posing risks are identified (e.g. premature infants hosted to intensive care units
           exposed to BPA at levels below TDI)

  1. In this figure, it is graphically illustrated the methodological concept of the INTERA approach, following the source to dose continuum.Keeping in line to the source to dose assessment, we initiate by identifying the potential indoor sources of contamination, taking into account also outdoor contributions such as traffic. From emissions, we move to environmental media concentrations, thus meaning the concentrations in the indoor air from all type of sources. After estimating the concentrations, we need to calculate human exposure from all type of possible exposure pathways and routes. Thus, besides exposure from inhaling indoor air, exposure due to non-dietary oral exposure as well as dermal exposure will be taken into account.Following, we estimate internal dose. Internal dose is the actual exposure metric, and it might be referring either to the parent compound entering human body or to the product of metabolisms. Additional advantage from the implementation of internal dose arises from the possibility of use of biomarker data. Although INTERA project is focused on exposure, exposure data or internal dose data might be further used for assessing possible health risks or the margin of safety for the indoor locations under study. All the above methodological elements described above, are currently implemented within a computational platform, which is composed by individual models. In addition, the overall modelling platform derives dynamic source to dose calculations, meaning that we can track the temporal variability of the several intermediate outcomes.At this point, we need to address that the overall assessment does not always start from emissions, but the starting point might be indoor concentration or even inhalation exposure.
