Biomonitoring

Schadstoffe aus der Umwelt können erhebliche Auswirkungen auf die menschliche Gesundheit haben. ABF hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, zur Verringerung dieser Risiken beizutragen. Unsere Biomonitoring-Dienstleistungen ermöglichen ein tieferes Verständnis von Umweltchemikalien und deren Metaboliten in biologischen Proben. Dies liefert wertvolle Einblicke in die Expositionsabschätzung und mögliche gesundheitliche Auswirkungen. Mithilfe validierter Analysemethoden generieren wir zuverlässige Daten, die für eine fundierte Entscheidungsfindung, die Einhaltung von Vorschriften und die Förderung einer gesünderen und nachhaltigeren Umwelt unerlässlich sind.

Pioniere in der Biomarker-Forschung

Alle im ABF entwickelten Biomarker-Methoden wurden in Fachzeitschriften mit Peer-Review-Verfahren veröffentlicht. Eine Tatsache, die die Validität, Transparenz und wissenschaftliche Evidenz der Bioanalytik untermauert. Dies ist vor allem für Zulassungsanträge bei Regulatoren von Bedeutung.
