This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present update, the state-of-the-art with respect to the validated methods of the 3Rs (Refinement, Reduction and Replacement) strategy of Russell et al. (1959), is incorporated with emphasis on New Approach Methodologies (NAMs). In view of the testing and marketing bans in the cosmetic regulation, the SCCS gives special attention to those alternative methods that are suitable for the safety testing of cosmetic substances. New methodologies for risk assessment of chemicals without using animal experimentation are worldwide being explored. Attention is given here to Next-Generation Risk Assessment (NGRA) as a possible framework for the safety evaluation of cosmetic ingredients and the NAMs that would fit into this structure (Rogiers et al., 2020). Risk assessment of cosmetics and their ingredients is shifting towards a strategic combination of NAMs and new technology with historical animal data, if available, to come to a Weight of Evidence (WoE) decision making approach. Although the "Notes of Guidance" are concerned with the testing and safety evaluation of the cosmetic substances listed in the Annexes of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and those for which safety concerns have been expressed, they could be also of interest for all substances intended to be incorporated in a cosmetic product. Even though the "Notes of Guidance" have not been written for the latter purpose, they can indeed be of practical use in making a Product Information File (PIF) for a finished cosmetic product as currently required by Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since July 2013, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 applies for cosmetic products. Their safety-in-use is, as was also the case for Directive 76/768/EEC, established by controlling the safety of the ingredients. For those ingredients for which some concern exists with respect to human health (e.g. colourants, preservatives, UV-filters, hair dyes), safety evaluation is done at the Commission level by the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS). These substances are addressed in the Annexes of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009. For the safety evaluation of cosmetic ingredients, all available scientific data are considered, taking into account the testing and marketing bans in force under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009. This includes the physical and chemical properties of the compounds under investigation, in silico data such as results obtained from (Q)SAR {(Quantitative) Structure Activity Relationship} modelling, chemical categories, grouping, read-across, Physiologically-Based PharmacoKinetics (PBPK) / ToxicoKinetics (PBTK) modelling, in vitro and ex vivo experimental results and data obtained from animal studies (in vivo) that have been carried out for the purpose of cosmetics before the testing and marketing bans. The animal testing ban on finished cosmetic products applies since 11 September 2004; the testing ban on ingredients or combination of ingredients applies since 11 March 2009. The marketing ban applies since 11 March 2009 for all human health effects with the exception of repeated-dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, and toxicokinetics. For these specific health effects, the marketing ban applies since 11 March 2013, irrespective of the availability of alternative non-animal methods. In addition, clinical data, epidemiological studies, information derived from accidents, data from Post-Marketing Surveillance (PMS) or other human data are also taken into consideration. In the present update, the state-of-the-art with respect to the validated methods of the 3Rs (Refinement, Reduction and Replacement) strategy of Russell et al. (1959), is incorporated with emphasis on New Approach Methodologies (NAMs). In view of the testing and marketing bans in the cosmetic regulation, the SCCS gives special attention to those alternative methods that are suitable for the safety testing of cosmetic substances. Although the "Notes of Guidance" are concerned with the testing and safety evaluation of the cosmetic substances listed in the Annexes of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and those for which safety concerns have been expressed, they could be also of interest for all substances intended to be incorporated in a cosmetic product. Even though the "Notes of Guidance" have not been written for the latter purpose, they can indeed be of practical use in making a Product Information File (PIF) for a finished cosmetic product as currently required by Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009. The "Notes of Guidance" should not be seen as a prescriptive procedure, but rather as an approach that may need to be adapted on a case-by-case basis when evaluating the safety of the Annex substances. However, when major deviations from standardised protocols/procedures in the safety evaluation process have been adopted, it is essential that Applicants provide scientific justification. The "Notes of Guidance" will be revised as scientifically required on the basis of scientific advances in toxicology and validated alternative methods or legislative changes.

Download or read book The History of Alternative Test Methods in Toxicology written by and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of Alternative Test Methods in Toxicology uses a chronological approach to demonstrate how the use of alternative methods has evolved from their conception as adjuncts to traditional animal toxicity tests to replacements for them. This volume in the History of Toxicology and Environmental Health series explores the history of alternative test development, validation, and use, with an emphasis on humanity and good science, in line with the Three Rs (Replacement,Reduction, Refinement) concept expounded by William Russell and Rex Burch in 1959 in their now classic volume, The Principles of Humane Experimental Technique. The book describes the historical development of technologies that have influenced the application of alternatives in toxicology and safety testing. These range from single cell monocultures to sophisticated, miniaturised and microfluidic organism-on-a-chip devices, and also include molecular modelling, chemoinformatics and QSAR analysis, and the use of stem cells, tissue engineering and hollow fibre bioreactors. This has been facilitated by the wider availability of human tissues, advances in tissue culture, analytical and diagnostic methods, increases in computational processing, capabilities, and a greater understanding of cell biology and molecular mechanisms of toxicity. These technological developments have enhanced the range and information content of the toxicity endpoints detected, and therefore the relevance of test systems and data interpretation, while new techniques for non-invasive diagnostic imaging and high resolution detection methods have permitted an increased role for human studies. Several key examples of how these technologies are being harnessed to meet 21st century safety assessment challenges are provided, including their deployment in integrated testing schemes in conjunction with kinetic modelling, and in specialized areas, such as inhalation toxicity studies.

Download or read book Notes of Guidance for the Testing of Cosmetic Ingredients and Their Safety Evaluation written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Notes of Guidance for Testing of Cosmetic Ingredients and Their Safety Evaluation by the SCCS" is a document compiled by the members of the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS, replacing the former SCCP, SCCNFP and SCC). The document contains relevant information on the different aspects of testing and safety evaluation of cosmetic substances in Europe. The emphasis of this guidance is on cosmetic ingredients, although some guidance is also given for the safety assessment of finished products. It is designed to provide guidance to public authorities and to the cosmetic industry in order to improve harmonised compliance with the current cosmetic EU legislation. An important development was the 2009 legislative recast, which transformed the cosmetic Directive 76/768/EEC into a Regulation. It is emphasised that from 11 July 2013 onwards this Regulation (2009/1223/EC) was fully applicable. The European cosmetic legislation prohibits the marketing of finished products containing ingredients or combinations of ingredients that have been subject to animal testing after 2013. Therefore the SCCS has closely followed the progress made with regard to the development and validation of alternative methods.
Download or read book Validation of Alternative Methods for Toxicity Testing written by Chantra Eskes and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides information on best practices and new thinking regarding the validation of alternative methods for toxicity testing. It covers the validation of experimental and computational methods and integrated approaches to testing and assessment. Validation strategies are discussed for methods employing the latest technologies such as tissue-on-a-chip systems, stem cells and transcriptomics, and for methods derived from pathway-based concepts in toxicology. Validation of Alternative Methods for Toxicity Testing is divided into two sections, in the first, practical insights are given on the state-of-the-art and on approaches that have resulted in successfully validated and accepted alternative methods. The second section focuses on the evolution of validation principles and practice that are necessary to ensure fit-for-purpose validation that has the greatest impact on international regulatory acceptance of alternative methods. In this context validation needs to keep pace with the considerable scientific advancements being made in toxicology, the availability of sophisticated tools and techniques that can be applied in a variety of ways, and the increasing societal and regulatory demands for better safety assessment. This book will be a useful resource for scientists in the field of toxicology, both from industry and academia, developing new test methods, strategies or techniques, as well as Governmental and regulatory authorities interested in understanding the principles and practicalities of validation of alternative methods for toxicity testing.

Download or read book Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-10-05 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in molecular biology and toxicology are paving the way for major improvements in the evaluation of the hazards posed by the large number of chemicals found at low levels in the environment. The National Research Council was asked by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to review the state of the science and create a far-reaching vision for the future of toxicity testing. The book finds that developing, improving, and validating new laboratory tools based on recent scientific advances could significantly improve our ability to understand the hazards and risks posed by chemicals. This new knowledge would lead to much more informed environmental regulations and dramatically reduce the need for animal testing because the new tests would be based on human cells and cell components. Substantial scientific efforts and resources will be required to leverage these new technologies to realize the vision, but the result will be a more efficient, informative and less costly system for assessing the hazards posed by industrial chemicals and pesticides.

Download or read book Regulatory Toxicology written by Franz-Xaver Reichl and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will be written by experts for professionals, scientists and all those involved in toxicological data generation and decision-making. It is the updated and expanded version of a monograph published in German in 2004. Chemical safety is regulated on various levels including production, storage, transport, handling, disposal or labelling. This book deals comprehensively with the safety-ensuring methods and concepts employed by regulatory agencies, industry and academics. Toxicologists use experimental and scientific approaches for data collection, e.g. about chemical hazards, physicochemical features or toxicokinetics. The respective experimental methods are described in the book. Toxicologists also deal with much insecurity in the exposure and effect scenarios during risk assessment. To overcome these, they have different extrapolation methods and estimation procedures at their disposal. The book describes these methods in an accessible manner. Differing concepts from one regulation area to another are also covered. Reasons and consequences become evident when reading the book. Altogether, the book Regulatory Toxicology will serve as an excellent reference.
