Impact/Purpose:

Poster presentation to the EPA Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) June 2018

Description:

In collaboration with partners from A*STAR, ECHA, EFSA, Health Canada, OECD-JRC, and other EPA offices, we want to test this hypothesis - that in vitro bioactivity can be used to derive a conservative point-of-departure (POD). Do new approach methods (NAMs; in vitro bioactivity data) provide a conservative estimate of POD compared to traditional in vivo data? Are bioactivity-exposure ratios (BER) useful for risk-based prioritization of chemicals for additional study and/or to serve as a low tier risk assessment approach? This poster gives an update of the latest findings of this group study.
