Sociodemographic aspects of human susceptibility to toxic chemicals: Do class and race matter for realistic risk assessment?

Abstract：

:Susceptibility is well-recognized as a potentially important aspect of health risk assessment, particularly for groups such as pregnant women and their fetuses, infants, children, the elderly, and the infirm, that are known or suspected to be more vulnerable to environmental insults. More recently, it has become apparent that economically disadvantaged groups are likely to be systematically both more exposed and more susceptible to environmental pollution. This article reviews the reasons why low-income communities and many racial minorities are at an increased risk because they are more susceptible to the adverse health effects of toxic chemicals. The scientific challenges of quantifying the magnitude of environmental health risks for these groups are discussed, emphasizing ramifications for risk assessment and risk management decisions. Problems incorporating susceptibility into risk-based decision making are identified, and specific actions are recommended to address these deficiencies.
