Williams, A., C. Grulke, G. Patlewicz, AND A. Richard. The US-EPA CompTox Chemicals Dashboard – a web-based database and information hub for over five thousand per- & polyfluoroalkyl chemical substances (SETAC NA). Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry NA 40th annual meeting (SETAC), Toronto, Ontario, CANADA, November 03 - 07, 2019. https://doi.org/10.23645/epacomptox.10269368
Impact/Purpose:
Abstract for submission to Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) 40th annual meeting in Nov 2019. This presentation will provide an overview of the dashboard, the ongoing expansion of the PFAS chemical library, with associated categorization, and new physicochemical property and environmental fate and transport QSAR prediction models developed for these chemicals.
Description:
The EPA’s CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) is a publicly accessible website providing access to data for ~875,000 chemical substances, the majority of these represented as chemical structures. The web application delivers a wide array of computed and measured physicochemical properties, in vitro high-throughput screening data and in vivo toxicity data, product use information extracted from safety data sheets, and integrated chemical linkages to a growing list of literature, toxicology, and analytical chemistry websites. The application provides access to segregated lists of chemicals that are of specific interest to relevant stakeholders, including Per- & Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) containing thousands of chemicals. A procured testing library of hundreds of PFAS chemicals annotated into chemical categories has also been integrated into the dashboard with a number of resulting benefits: a searchable database of chemical properties, with hazard and exposure predictions, and links to the open literature. Several specific search types have been developed to directly support the mass spectrometry non-targeted screening community, enabling cohesive workflows to support data generation for the detection and assessment of environmental exposures to chemicals contained within the database. This presentation will provide an overview of the dashboard, the ongoing expansion of the PFAS chemical library, with associated categorization, and new physicochemical property and environmental fate and transport QSAR prediction models developed for these chemicals.
