International programme on chemical safety

TL;DR: The International Programme on Chemical Safety is a joint venture of the United Nations Environment Programme, the International Labour Organisation, and the World Health Organization to carry out and disseminate evaluations of the effects of chemicals on human health and the quality of the environment.

A review of personal care products in the aquatic environment: environmental concentrations and toxicity.

TL;DR: Several PCPs including triclosan, paraben preservatives, and UV filters have evidence suggesting endocrine effects in aquatic organisms and thus need to be investigated and incorporated in definitive risk assessments.

Technical basis for narcotic chemicals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon criteria. I. Water and tissue

TL;DR: In this paper, a target lipid model is proposed that accounts for variations in toxicity due to differing species sensitivities and chemical differences, and a method is presented for developing water quality criteria for type I narcotic chemicals in general and PAHs in particular.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sodium turnover rate determines sensitivity to acute copper and silver exposure in freshwater animals.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the presented sodium turnover model is used in conjunction with the Biotic Ligand Model for risk management decisions, noting that sodium turnover rate is the key predictor for variation in acute copper and silver toxicity amongst groups of freshwater animals.

Confidence Limits for the LD 50 using the Moving Average-Angle Method

Eugene K. Harris
- 23 Jan 1959 - 
TL;DR: The use of moving averages as a smoothing procedure is well known to statisticians as discussed by the authors, and Thompson and Weil [1952] have published formulas and tables useful in the calculation of approximate confidence limits for the LD50 without reference to the angular transformation.
