How do you work out how safe or dangerous a chemical or some other substance is? This week's Risk Bites takes a look at chemical safety, and estimating health risk from chemical exposure. This week's Risk Bites team: David Faulkner (post-production) Andrew Maynard (all the other stuff) Risk Bite
How do you know if the chemicals in the stuff you use and eat are safe? Only a small fraction of the thousands of chemicals in use today have been thoroughly tested for safety. Part of the problem is that how we test chemicals now is slow, expensive, and relies an awful lot on animal testing. How
