In 2005, a comprehensive comparison of LCIA toxicity characterization models was initiated by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) and the Society for Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) in their life cycle initiative. The main objectives of this effort were to [9] (1) identify specific sources of differences between the models results and structure (2) detect the indispensable model components and (3) build a scientific consensus model from them, representing recommended practice. 

Many reviews on ecotoxicological aspects of arsenic in the environment are available, including those by Woolson (1975), NAS (1977), NRCC (1978), Pershagen and Valuer (1979), USEPA (1980, 1985), Hood (1985), Andreae (1986), Sorensen (1987), Eisler (1988,1994), Phillips (1990), ATSDR (1992), Abernathy et al. (1997), Society for Environmental Geochemistry and Health [SEGH] (1998) and the U.S. Public Health Service [USPHS] (1998). These authorities agree on six points ...
