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?
The Worker TRA Task Force has been active since 2019, delivering projects that advance the scientific basis of the Worker Targeted Risk Assessment (TRA) tool. Its overarching objective is to e...
Why?Regulatory assessment of immunotoxic properties of chemicals is a complex and challenging task
Limited regulatory guidance exists
Lack of industry and regulatory knowledge...
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....
