About us
ECETOC provides a collaborative space for top scientists from industry, academia and governments to develop and promote practical, trusted and sustainable solutions to scientific challenges which are valuable to industry, as well as to the regulatory community and society in general. We SHAPE scientific knowledge by working with leading scientists from academia, governments and industry to answer crucial scientific questions about chemical safety and so develop practical applications to solve scientific challenges. We EXPAND scientific knowledge by working with Cefic’s Long-range Research Initiative (LRI) to develop targeted scientific research that tackles both today’s and tomorrow’s chemistry challenges. We COMMUNICATE scientific knowledge by providing scientific thought-leadership, creating a practical knowledge base that is shared freely on our website, alongside our chemical safety assessment tools.

🚨 New Publication Alert! 🚨 We are excited to announce the publication of an ECETOC study examining the challenges posed by #aquatic #testing of #particulate #materials. This research is crucial for assessing the safety of aquatic environments, particularly concerning #nanomaterials and #microplastics. The paper, published in Royal Society of Chemistry's Environmental Science: Nano, highlights the complexities of applying existing OECD test guidelines to particulate materials. It identifies technical challenges such as preparing stable dispersions and understanding transformation processes like dissolution, agglomeration, and sedimentation. The study offers recommendations to optimize aquatic testing and ensure more meaningful and relevant results. 🔬 Read the full paper at the link below to gain insights into the latest advancements in particulate material testing and its implications for environmental safety. #ECETOC #EnvironmentalSafety #Nanomaterials #Microplastics #AquaticTesting #Research #Science
