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.
Targeted Risk Assessment (TRA)

Targeted Risk Assessment (TRA)

The Targeted Risk Assessment (TRA) estimates exposures to workers, consumers and the environment that arise during a series of events.
Chronic fish case studies towards an IATA

Chronic fish case studies towards an IATA

Why?Hazard and safety assessments for the pelagic compartment often rely on in vivo studies using a single fish species, raising ethical concerns and uncertainty in terms of extrapolation....

10th SETAC Europe Special Science Symposium: Bioavailability of Organic Chemicals: Linking Science to Risk Assessment and Regulation

When Tue, October 14, 2014, 12am – Thu, October 16, 2014, 12am

Where:  Marivaux Hotel, Boulevard Adolphe Max, Belgium (map)

Description:

3rd party event: 10th SETAC Europe Special Science Symposium Bioavailability of Organic Chemicals: Linking Science to Risk Assessment and Regulation Event Website sesss10.setac.org

The main objective of this symposium is to identify and provide scientifically-based solutions to the challenges faced by regulators and industries in handling bioavailability issues during risk assessment and regulation of organic chemicals. The symposium will provide an opportunity for scientists, regulators, and industrial managers to intensify the exchange of knowledge and experience on these issues, with the goal to facilitate the implementation of bioavailability in the management and regulation of chemicals (e.g., REACH) and contaminated sites (including remediation).
