A targeted health risk assessment following the Deep Water Horizon Oil Spill: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposure in Vietnamese-American shrimp consumers
The Deep Water Horizon oil spill of 2010, prompted concern about health risks among seafood consumers exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) via consumption of contaminated seafood. The objective of the study was to conduct population-specific probabilistic health risk assessments based on consumption of locally harvested white shrimp (Litopenaeus setiferus) among Vietnamese-Americans in Southeast Louisiana.
