Activities of the OECD in the field of chemicals control with particular reference to the work on high production volume chemicals.
The direct products that member countries and industry have gained so far from the cooperative work in the OECD SIDS (screening information data set) context include: the wider availability of many data from industry; the generation of many test data; the development of SIDS dossiers and SIDS testing plans on 162 high production volume (HPV) chemicals; the preparation of SIDS initial assessment reports (25 are ready, another 67 will be ready in July 1994); and the improved mutual understanding of methods for making initial hazard assessments.
