An informatics approach to evaluating combined chemical exposures from consumer products: A case study of asthma-associated and potential endocrine disruptors

Cumulative risk assessments consider multiple stressors but it is impractical to test every chemical combination to which people are exposed. New methods are needed to prioritize chemical combinations based on their prevalence and possible health impacts.
