The LifeLine Group

A non-profit organization bringing state-of-the-art science to contemporary challenges of assessing exposure, risk and benefits to elements of people's diets and living environment

Creating software models available to all for

  • Detailed exposure and risk/benefit assessment
  • Priority setting and screening assessments
  • Models of the body's dynamics and metrics

Finding solutions for regulatory and public health issues

LifeLine Software Suite

LifeLine Aggregate and Cumulative Exposure and Risk Assessment Software™
Detailed seasonal exposure and risk profiles for selected subpopulations by multiple routes, sources. Used by Office of Pesticides Program, US EPA, US States, Health Canada and other regulatory agencies.
Dietary Record Generator™
A stand alone software tool that transforms information from a wide range of sources about food and dietary habits into simulated dietary files that can be imported into the LifeLine Customized Dietary Assessment Software™ (CDAS™) for exposure and risk assessment software. The DRG™ allows the use of dietary information relevant to unique population groups.
Alaska Compendium of Traditional and Subsistence Dietary Files™
A food consumption database for Alaska Native populations constructed, using the DRG™ software, from a diverse array of information about dietary habits, food availability, and economics of the populations for whom there are no detailed food consumption surveys..
Customized Dietary Assessment Software™
A novel tool which allows calculation of dietary exposure and risks from unique diets. A unique diet could be any diet that is not the type represented in the CSFII, such as vegetarian diets, ethnic diets, low-carbohydrate diets, diets high in any specific food of interest or high in fortified foods. The CDAS™ also allows a “menu blending” of diets, such as found in some populations that consume both commercial foods as represented by the CSFII database and unique or atypical foods as represented by the DRG™ database.
LifeLine Tribal™
Exposure profiles specific to the unique living scenarios of tribal communities, including traditional diets, housing styles, and seasonally specific activity patterns.
LifeLine Physiological Parameters for PBPK Modeling (P³M)
Models interindividual variations in physiological parameters used in exposure assessments and PBPK modeling.
LifeLine Chemical Exposure Priority Setting Tool™ (CEPST™/ComET©)
Priority setting for simultaneous exposure-based assessment of multiple chemicals which consider different exposure routes, durations, subpopulations and other parameters.
