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).

Repeat Dose Toxicity testing workshop: From concept to application

Practical implementation of enhanced 28-day studies (Smart studies/TG+) within a NAM based tiered testing approach for repeat dose toxicity

How can an enhanced 28 day studies (Smart studies/TG+) advance chemical hazard assessment while supporting the phase-out of animal testing? Discuss and learn how integrating new-approach methodologies (NAMs) into repeat-dose toxicity testing under the European Union (EU) REACH regulation can reduce reliance on longer term in vivo studies while maintaining Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) protection standards. This workshop will bring together scientific, regulatory, and industry experts to explore how this approach can act as a practical bridge toward future regulatory acceptance of new testing methodologies.
