ChemSelect is an free online tool for assessing and comparing the sustainability of substances and mixtures. ChemSelect is primarily aimed at users of chemicals: companies that manufacture mixtures and use substances or mixtures in their products or processes.
What can ChemSelect do?
The OECD Chemicals Test Guidelines Explorer is an interactive dashboard for exploring OECD Test Guidelines, the internationally agreed methods used to test the safety of chemicals for human health and the environment. It offers easy search, filtering and comparison of testing approaches for regulatory and scientific use.
By bringing key information together in one interactive dashboard, the tool helps users explore the Test Guidelines from a broader perspective while maintaining direct access to the supporting materials.
The scientific programme consists of 7 tracks for parallel sessions.
1. Environmental and Human Toxicology: From Molecules to Organisms, From Omics to in Vivo
The ToxFMD Screened Chemistry® Library (https://database.toxservices.com) contains GreenScreen® chemical hazard assessments for over 1000 chemicals
The hazard identification of chemicals is a key step of the “Safe and Sustainable by Design” (SSbD) framework introduced by the European Commission, aiming to eliminate hazardous substances early in innovation. In this context, in silico methods such as (Quantitative) Structure–Activity Relationship ((Q)SAR) models offer rapid, cost-effective, and animalfree alternatives for early-stage hazard screening. The Partnership for the Assessment of Risks from Chemicals (PARC) is developing a toolbox to facilitate SSbD assessments containing numerous (Q)SAR models.
During early-stage drug discovery, novel compounds and intermediates often have limited toxicological data, so how do chemists and safety professionals protect themselves?
The SOT 66th Annual Meeting and ToxExpo will feature four days of Continuing Education courses, sessions, posters, and social events.
