The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard is a part of a suite of databases and web applications developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). These databases and apps support EPA's research efforts to develop and apply new approach methods (NAMs). EPA researchers integrate advances in biology, bioinformatics, biotechnology, chemistry, and computer science to identify important biological processes that may be disrupted by chemicals. The combined information helps prioritize chemicals based on potential health risks. Using computational toxicology research methods, thousands of chemicals can be evaluated for potential risk at small cost in a very short amount of time.
The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard provides public access to chemical data. It is a widely used resource for chemistry, toxicity, and exposure information for over a million chemicals. Users can search the Dashboard by chemical identifiers, consumer product categories, and assays/genes associated with high-throughput screening data. The Dashboard provides unique capabilities including real time prediction of physicochemical properties and toxicological endpoints, batch searching for thousands of chemicals at a time, and advanced searching approaches to support non-targeted screening mass spectrometry research effort.
