Background
Arsenic is also found naturally in the environment and is typically present in soil and water at detectable levels. Sources of human exposure to inorganic arsenic include drinking water, diet, air, and soils (which can contain naturally occurring arsenic or contamination from anthropogenic sources). This IRIS health assessment addresses cancer and non-cancer human health effects that may result from chronic exposure to this chemical.
