Part 1 sets out the fundamental elements, from problem formulation to risk characterisation.Brussels, 22 July 2026. The ECETOC Plastic Additives Task Force has published the first of two peer...
Dear colleagues and friends,As we begin a new year, I would like to thank you for your continued engagement and trust in ECETOC. 2026 promises to be an exciting and dynamic year, and I am pleased...
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).
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....
Why?REACH restriction: SPM use restricted; emissions reporting required by May 2027.
Gap: No analytical methods available to measure SPM emissions.
Solution: Draft SPERC-based approac...
Why?Validation of NAMs is often overlooked despite its importance for regulatory use.
Traditional validation methods are less suitable for NAMs, which focus on key events rather than apical...
