dc.description.abstractHuman beings live in constant contact with chemical agents—mainly through environmental exposure—and also derived from occupational settings. Environmental exposure is ubiquitous, originating from air, water, and soil. While some chemicals are short-lived in the environment and may elicit no harmful effects in humans, other chemicals bioaccumulate and/or persist for a long time in the environment or the human body due to frequent exposure. However, it is valuable to note that environmental exposure also includes diet, lifestyle, hobbies, and exposure to other substances such as drugs, food additives, pesticides, and nanomaterials, among other daily products, which are currently significant areas of research, such as bisphenols, per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), micro-nano plastics (MP-NPs), among others. Occupational exposure concerns the potentially harmful exposure to hazardous chemicals in the workplace; however, more specifically, it involves substantial contact with hazardous substances. Possible health effects can arise from these types of exposure, which can be measured and prevented by biomonitoring, and the outcome should be integrated to ensure better regulatory decision-making. This editorial provides a brief overview of the major findings of each of the research published, and taken together which information can give to surveillance health and regulatory science on the future research that should be considered.pt_PT
