Description: The following text was taken from EPA's High Production Volume Challenge Program website:

"Under the High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge Program, companies are 'challenged' to make health and environmental effects data publicly available on chemicals produced or imported in the United States in the greatest quantities. HPV chemicals are classified as those chemicals produced or imported in the United States in quantities of 1 million pounds or more per year. As of June 2007, companies have sponsored more than 2,200 HPV chemicals, with approximately 1,400 chemicals sponsored directly through the HPV Challenge Program and over 860 chemicals sponsored indirectly through international efforts."

The DSSTox HPVCSI Structure-Index File consolidates three historical EPA HPV Chemical Lists associated with multiple public notices of the HPV voluntary chemical adoption program. HPVCSI contains the full complement of DSSTox Standard Chemical Fields as well as URL links to the three historical chemical listings (1990, 1994, Additional) posted on the EPA HPV Challenge Program Website. Not all chemicals in these lists have undergone testing, are slated for testing, or will have corresponding data in EPA's on-line HPV Information System (HPV-IS). Indicators of testing status are provided on the HPVCSI Source website and 4 fields capturing these indices are included in the DSSTox HPVCSI data file. For instance, those chemicals identified on the European HPV list or as close analogs of another HPV chemical for which test data will be available may not be included. In addition, HPV status can change depending on changes in reported production volumes, with substances migrating on and off the historical and current HPV listing.

Toxicity data collected through the HPV Challenge Program are being incorporated into the EPA's on-line HPV-IS, which is a publicly available, relational, searchable data warehouse. Currently data is available in the HPV-IS for approximately one third of the HPVCSI inventory, with a small number of compounds in the HPV-IS (less than 30) not listed in the historical HPVCSI inventory. Since the HPVCSI inventory is static and does not fully cover the content of the HPV-IS, a new DSSTox file (HPVISD) has been created to cover the HPV Information System Data inventory more precisely, and to include the corresponding chemical data page URLs for the HPV-IS system. This file will also allow for local structure searching through the HPV-IS inventory through the recently launched DSSTox Structure-Browser.

Note: HPVCSI contains a large percentage (43%) of mixtures and macromolecules compared to other DSSTox Structure Data Files. Where possible, we provide some description of the substance in the ChemicalNote field. In addition, for nearly a third of the substances classified as mixtures and macromolecules (1515-1071=444), HPVCSI incorporates a single representative STRUCTURE based on DSSTox expert review . This structure information is provided not as definitive characterization, but to allow the HPVCSI record to be "located" by a structure search.

Version 2b Update:
Previously, in HPVCSI_v2a, URLs for chemical substance-specific toxicity test data pages in the EPA HPV Information System (HPV-IS) were included for approximately one third of the HPVCSI inventory. However, since the historical HPVCSI file is static and does not fully cover the content of the HPV-IS, a new DSSTox file has been created to cover the HPV Information System Data (HPVISD) inventory more precisely, and to include the corresponding chemical data page URLs for the HPV-IS system. As a result, these chemical-specific data page URLs have been removed in this v2b update of HPVCSI.

In addition, with the availability of more detailed description of chemical mixture substance records in the published HPV-IS Robust Summaries, 14 new structures have been added and 23 modified in HPVCSI_v2b.

Version 2c Update: HPVCSI_v2c includes minor structure changes/modifications and the new STRUCTURE_InChIKey field (25 character abbreviated InChI for use in structure-indexing applications) added as a DSSTox Standard Chemical Field to all DSSTox files.
