From Figure C-1 it is clear that the closer measures of exposure are to the target site for the outcome being examined, the greater is the utility of the data for assessing effects of specific stressors. Conversely, the closer measures of exposure are to environmental concentrations the greater the utility of the information for source emission assessment and control (Figure C-1)

The use of the term internal exposure1 is potentially a major shift for the field in that it can be used both in conceptual and theoretical discussions and in experimental design to characterize the processes associated with exposure biology. The quantitative definition of internal exposure is the same as originally discussed by Lioy (1990)
