Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book also illustrates how bioavailability adjustments can be incorporated into risk assessments to generate risk-based cleanup values that are more site specific than those based on the default assumption of complete bioavailability. Although the book focuses on oral bioavailability of metals to human receptors, many of the basic principles described herein also can be applied to assessing bioavailability of organic compounds and for assessing bioavailability to ecological receptors."--BOOK JACKET.
