ENDOCRINE DISRUPTION
The evaluation of substances for Endocrine Disruption (ED) potential has been mandatory since 2018 under the Plant Protection Products and Biocide Products regulations.
The year 2023 is a key turning point :
-
New hazard classes for endocrine disruptors according to CLP regulation entered into force on 20 April:
- ED HH in Category 1 and Category 2 (Endocrine disruption for human health)
- ED ENV in Category 1 and Category 2 (Endocrine disruption for the environment)
-
Also, the update of regulation on Cosmetic Products to take into account ED assessment is awaited in the coming months.
-
In addition, the next update of REACH regulation is expected to include new requirements to identify ED from the lowest tonnage band.
Anticipation and adaptation to these regulatory changes are strongly recommended.
CEHTRA can provide you a balanced and independent ED assessment by experts and can guide you to obtain reliable results using appropriate state-of-the-art tools and methods for your substances of interest.
