Advancement of polymer exposure science workshop – Flash report

In a Nutshell

Participants at this 2-day workshop heard from experts on the current state of exposure science and were asked to reflect on the following questions: • Is the current state of “exposure-science” on the migration of Low Molecular Weight Compounds (LMWC) from (polymer) matrices sufficient to address the concerns of all stakeholders? • What is the broader applicability of the “exposure-science” currently developed for specific regulatory or risk assessment purposes? • Is the current state of “exposure-science” on the migration of Low Molecular Weight Compounds (LMWC) from (polymer) matrices sufficient to meet existing, new and emerging regulatory or risk assessment needs and if not, what are the knowledge gaps and research needs? Read the report for a highlight of the key takeaways.
