Chemical Profiles. PAN Pesticide Database. Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) A-Z List of Substances | IRIS. The substances in IRIS are listed in order alphabetically by the substance name. You can click on the Alphabetical letter corresponding to the chemicals beginning with that letter to list the relevant substances, or use your browser's "Find" command to search for a substance name or Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number (CASRN). The IRIS Program does not currently develop updated assessments for registered pesticides unless the registered pesticides also have non-pesticide uses. The IRIS user should consult OPP Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) documents prepared by the Office of Pesticide Programs for additional health assessment information (see link provided in the OPP Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) column below).

What We Do Using sound science as a compass, OCSPP’s mission is to protect you, your family, and the environment from potential risks from pesticides and toxic chemicals. Through innovative partnerships and collaboration, we also work to prevent pollution before it begins. This reduces waste, saves energy and natural resources, and leaves our homes, schools and workplaces cleaner and safer. OCSPP implements the Documents related to our mission: Top of Page Organization Jim Jones, Assistant Administrator Louise P. Marylouise M. Matt Bogoshian, Senior Policy Counsel The Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention includes: Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) What We Do OPP regulates the use of all pesticides in the United States and establishes maximum levels for pesticide residues in food, thereby safeguarding the nation's food supply.

In addition to our regulatory functions, we provide information and coordinate on issues ranging from worker protection to misuse of pesticides. Jack E. American Chemical Society - The world's largest scientific society. Minimal Risk Levels for Hazardous Substances (MRLs) MRL List (HTML) MRL List (PDF) Narrative The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) [42 U.S.C. 9604 et seq.], as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) [Pub.

L. 99 499], requires that the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) develop jointly with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in order of priority, a list of hazardous substances most commonly found at facilities on the CERCLA National Priorities List (NPL) (42 U.S.C. 9604(i)(2)); prepare toxicological profiles for each substance included on the priority list of hazardous substances, and to ascertain significant human exposure levels (SHELs) for hazardous substances in the environment, and the associated acute, subacute, and chronic health effects (42 U.S.C. 9604(i)(3)); and assure the initiation of a research program to fill identified data needs associated with the substances (42 U.S.C. 9604(i)(5)). ATSDR Contact Person for MRLs: Dr. The SIN List - Substitute It Now! The SIN (Substitute It Now!) List is an NGO driven project to speed up the transition to a world free of hazardous chemicals.

The SIN List 2.1 consists of 626 chemicals that ChemSec has identified as Substances of Very High Concern based on the criteria established by the EU chemical regulation, REACH. The SIN List is an important tool for speeding up the REACH legislative process and giving guidance to companies. It is based on a straightforward concept: substitute hazardous chemicals with safer alternatives. Think of it as a fast track to a toxic-free world. Substitute It Now!

The chemicals on the SIN List are being used in everything from detergents and paints to computers and toys. The SIN List puts pressure on legislators to move forward with speed and urgency. The most hazardous chemicals according to EU legislation The SIN List contains substances that are identified by ChemSec as fulfilling the criteria for Substances of Very High Concern provided by REACH.

HSDB is a toxicology database that focuses on the toxicology of potentially hazardous chemicals. It provides information on human exposure, industrial hygiene, emergency handling procedures, environmental fate, regulatory requirements, nanomaterials, and related areas. Updates: The HSDB Scientific Review Panel meets several times yearly to review selected substances, add new records, and update records, as needed.

Did you know How do I obtain the full TOXNET dataset? The following TOXNET datasets are available: ChemIDplus, CCRIS, GENE-TOX, HSDB, LactMed, and TOXLINE. For further information visit the NLM Data Distribution Program from the National Library of Medicine.

CAS REGISTRYSM contains more than 85 million unique organic and inorganic chemical substances, such as alloys, coordination compounds, minerals, mixtures, polymers and salts, and more than 65 million sequences—more than any other database of its kind. When you need to positively identify a chemical substance, you can rely on the authoritative source for chemical names and structures of CAS REGISTRY.

You can also identify your substance of interest by its CAS Registry Number®, which is universally used to provide a unique, unmistakable identifier for chemical substances. You can also use CAS REGISTRY to locate literature references to the substance experimental and predicted property data (boiling and melting points, etc.) CA Index Names and synonyms commercial availability preparative methods spectra regulatory information from international sources Content How do we count All substance records contain a unique CAS Registry Number.
