than 200 biologists, toxicologists, epidemiologists, nutrition
researchers, and pediatricians determined that “[t]he timing of
exposure -- with an emphasis on critical windows of susceptibility --
has therefore become a crucial factor to be considered in
toxicological assessments” due to three primary aspects of
consideration:</p>

<ol><li>“the mother's chemical body
        burden will be shared with her fetus or neonate”;</li><li>“susceptibility to adverse
        effects is increased during development, from preconception through
        adolescence”;</li><li>“developmental exposures to
        toxicants can lead to life-long functional deficits and
        manifestations of increased disease risks.”</li></ol>
