eChemPortal: Global Portal to Information on Chemical Substances

This collection of case studies includes a variety of studies where chemicals are grouped together for a risk assessment. This addition improves accessibility to risk assessment data for governments, scientists and industry.

Emission Scenario Documents

This OECD Emission Scenario Document (ESD) is intended to provide information on the sources, use patterns, and potential release pathways of vapour degreasing chemicals. The document presents standard approaches for estimating environmental releases and occupational exposures.

Integrated Approaches to Testing and Assessment (IATA)

This new case study illustrates an assessment workflow based on various types of non-animal test methods was published in 2021. In addition, an updated document that includes considerations of using methods in IATA was also published following the 6th case study review cycle.

Occupational Biomonitoring

Occupational Biomonitoring allows to measure internal exposure or effect. It is especially efficient in assessing exposures from multiple routes, i.e. inhalation, oral and dermal exposure pathways. This project is focused on improving methods for deriving health based human biomarker values (BMGV, BLV, DNELbiomarker).

Children’s Health

This report aims to enhance awareness for inclusion of children’s exposure in risk assessments when relevant and presents a children’s exposure decision tree that facilitates such decisions. The decision tree can be used to identify if a separate exposure assessment is needed with regard to children, and also aims to identify whether the exposure assessment conducted for adults already provides an acceptable level of safety of children.

Considerations for Assessing the Risks of Combined Exposure to Multiple Chemicals

This document outlines various approaches and methodologies for the assessment of risks from combined exposures to multiple chemicals. The document draws from approaches and experience in the regulatory context, and presents elements to consider in the assessment.

OECD Environmental Risk Assessment Toolkit: Tools for environmental risk assessment and management

Access to practical tools on environmental risk assessment and management of chemicals and description of the workflow of environmental risk assessment and management with links to relevant OECD products that can be used in each step of the workflow.

OECD Product Release and Exposure Data Warehouse

The Product Release and Exposure Data Warehouse is a Microsoft® Access 2016 database is designed to house existing data on releases of chemicals from, and exposures to, commercial and consumer end products. A number of forms provide a simple approach to data entry and access to the existing data.

Évaluation des dangers

L'OCDE travaille avec les pays membres et autres parties prenantes à coopérer évaluer les dangers des produits chimiques industriels pour générer de l'OCDE ont convenu-évaluations qui sont à la disposition du public et qui peuvent être utilisés pour l'établissement des priorités, l'évaluation des risques et d'autres activités au sein de programmes nationaux ou régionaux.
