TL;DR: This project completed in the Mackenzie Valley of the Northwest Territories fills a data gap across other biomonitoring studies in Canada as it integrates community results, will support stakeholders in the development of public health strategies, and will inform environmental health issue prioritization.

TL;DR: An in vitro gastrointestinal model was used to explore the role of solid-liquid separation method on the bioaccessibility of trace elements in a smelter-impacted soil from Helena, MT and a mine overburden from an open-pit gold and silver mine in Mount Nansen, YK (YK-OVB).

TL;DR: Metal biomarker levels from nine Dene communities located in the Dehcho and Sahtú regions are reported to identify contaminants of interest and metals and essential trace elements of particular interest for follow-up research include lead, manganese, mercury, and selenium.

TL;DR: In this paper, a human biomonitoring project conducted in First Nations communities of the Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, Canada was used to determine if there were seasonal patterns in hair mercury concentrations in these regions and if so, if patterns were related to among-season variability in fish consumption.
