Evolution of environmental exposure science: using breath-borne biomarkers for "discovery" of the human exposome.
According to recent research, 70-90% of long-term latency and chronic human disease incidence is attributable to environmental (human exposome) factors through the gene-environment interaction. Environmental exposure science is now embarking on a new "discovery" path for decoding the human exposome using biomarkers in breath and other biological media.
