  • Analysis of durations and frequencies of mouthing behaviors in children 6 months to 6 years

    Open AccessFoluke Adelabu, Cristina Fayad-Martinez et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2026

    Background Children are susceptible to harmful substances found in indoor dust through frequent hand-to-mouth and object-to-mouth contacts. Despite the importance of this exposure route, few studies have quantified the frequency, duration, or patterns of mouthing behaviors in indoor residential settings, creating uncertainty in exposure and risk models. Objective This study quantified the frequency and duration of indoor mouthing contacts for chi…

  • Methodologies for the collection of parameters to estimate dust/soil ingestion for young children

    Open AccessAlesia Ferguson, Foluke Adelabu et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2024

    Background: Heavy metals, pesticides and a host of contaminants found in dust and soil pose a health risk to young children through ingestion. Dust/soil ingestion rates for young children can be estimated using micro-level activity time series (MLATS) as model inputs. MLATS allow for the generation of frequency and duration of children's contact activities, along with sequential contact patterns. Models using MLATS consider contact types, and tra…
