PrecisionTox: transforming chemical safety assessment

02:092 years ago

In order to better protect human health and the environment from harmful chemicals, the European chemical agency (ECHA) pursues the objective of "zero tolerance" on non-compliance of chemical registration applications. In this video, scientists of the PrecisionTox project - an EU-funded project aiming to accelerate chemical safety assessment with 3Rs compliant models - explain how New Approach Methods (NAMs) provide rich biological data that can help close the data gap to increase acceptance of chemicals dossier while reducing, replacing and refining animal experimentation.
