HSSD Tool

HSSD Tool

This software was developed by a consortium of partners to facilitate the uptake of novel approaches to estimate aquatic threshold concentrations (e.g. the concentration at which 5% of the species are exposed above their EC50, HC5).
The Human Exposure Assessment Tools Database (heatDB)

The Human Exposure Assessment Tools Database (heatDB)

heatdb is a public directory of exposure data sources as well as available tools for exposure
NanoApp

NanoApp

ECETOC’s NanoApp is a tool designed to define the boundaries of sets of similar nanoforms and to generate a justification for the REACH registration.

Report on the RSC Low Doses Endocrine Disrupter Effects Workshop

Royal Society of Chemistry
Expert Panel on Endocrine Disrupter Low Dose Effects
RSC London 4th June 2014

This RSC Workshop took place on June 4th 2014 and the report can be downloaded from http://bit.ly/rsc-low-dose-effects . The workshop was a follow-up to a previous workshop “ECETOC Expert Panel to Better Understand Endocrine Disrupter Low Doses Effects” held on 22-23 April 2013.
The objectives of the RSC workshop were:

  •  To recapitulate and discuss the content of the US EPA, the US NAS and the Vandenberg
  • reviews
  • To determine research priorities and select the endocrine axis to be considered first
  • To develop an outline of a research programme
  • To discuss potential sources of funding for the research programme.

A follow-up Expert meeting will be held 09 April 2015 at the RSC to move this important initiative forward.
