Impact/Purpose:

Presentation at RIVM (Netherlands National Institute for Public Health and the Environment) visit to EPA on April 18, 2018

Description:

This gives an overview of an international case study on advancing the pace of chemical risk assessment (APCRA) that asks if in vitro bioactivity can be used to derive a conservative point-of-departure (POD) for prioritization and screening level risk assessment. When combined with high-throughput exposure estimates, this approach provides a reasonable basis for risk-based prioritization and screening level risk assessments. Additional research to include expanded and improved high-throughput toxicokinetics and in vitro disposition kinetics may help improve POD estimates.
