Abstract
The magnitude of the arsenic dose a child may receive from playing on or under a CCA-treated structure is unknown. Further research is needed to determine the body burden of arsenic in children who play around and on CCA-treated wood. Our goals are to (1) provide preliminary data on the human pharmacokinetics of arsenic from CCA-treated wood exposure and (2) to guide the development of a larger, future study that will evaluate the potential long-term health risks of arsenic exposure from routine play on CCA-treated structures.
