Subject:      The International Toxicity Estimates for Risk (ITER) Database

The International Toxicity Estimates for Risk (ITER) Database (http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/htmlgen?iter) The International Toxicity Estimates for Risk (ITER) database was added to NLM's Division of Specialized Information Services (SIS)'s TOXNET system on January 22 (http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/htmlgen?iter). ITER is a database of human health risk values from major organizations worldwide for over 600 chemicals of environmental concern. It is a product of Toxicology Excellence for Risk Assessment (TERA), a non-profit group whose mission is to protect public health by developing and communicating risk assessment values, improving risk methods through research, and educating the public on risk assessment issues. The risk values are included from: the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), USA ; the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), USA; Health Canada; the International Agency for Research on Cancer; the National Institute of Public Health and Environment (RIVM), the Netherlands; and various other groups (e.g. industry, consultants, academia) after an independent peer review. These independent values are available only on ITER. The list will likely expand over the coming years as TERA identifies new global risk information resources. *********************************************************** *********************************************************** *********NLM-Tox-Enviro-Health-L NOTICE********* You are receiving this message as a subscribed member of NLM-Tox-Enviro-Health-L, an announcement list available from the National Library of Medicine, Division of Specialized Information Services (http://sis.nlm.nih.gov).
