Other TE limits, such as those of Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn typically result in low HQi, meaning that limits in their cases are rather overprotective. Our approach reveals the need of reducing diversity in regulation limits by drafting soil legislations of worldwide validity, since risks are common across countries. We suggest that new directions should strategically tend to (a) reduce limits of TEs with underestimated contribution to health risk (such as As), (b) cautiously increase limits of TEs that currently cause minor health risks, (c) quantify TE risks associated with uptake to edible plants and potable water, and (d) consider multi-element contamination cases, where risks are cumulatively enhanced due to TE synergism.]]> Thu 14 Apr 2022 10:57:56 AEST ]]> The validity and reliability of an interactive computer tobacco and alcohol use survey in general practice https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9522 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:35:34 AEDT ]]>
