Abstract
⺠New concept proposed for gauging the overall health of small-area human populations. ⺠BioSCIM uses Sewage Chemical-Information Mining to measure biomarkers in sewage. ⺠Real-time, low-cost assessment of community-wide heath is possible. ⺠Isoprostanes (biomarkers of oxidative stress) are identified as targets for BioSCIM. ⺠Panel of orthogonal biomarkers with complementary properties may broaden usefulness.
