Traduction de «Developmental test and evaluation » (Anglais → Français) :

It's important to remember that none of the developmental tests that are being conducted are being conducted in what might be called operational conditions.

EOGRTS is a modular test method, where breeding and assessment of a second filial (F2) generation and testing for developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) and developmental immunotoxicity (DIT) constitute distinct and independent modules.

If a substance is known to cause developmental toxicity, meeting the criteria for classification as toxic for reproduction category 1A or 1B: May damage the unborn child (H360D), and the available data are adequate to support a robust risk assessment, then no further testing for developmental toxicity will be necessary.

The risk assessment concluded that there is no need for risk reduction measures beyond those which are being applied already with regard to risk to consumers, human health (physico-chemical properties), risks to the atmosphere and risks to micro-organisms in the sewage treatment plant, and that there is a need for further information and or testing with respect to risks to workers, to humans exposed via the environment and to the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem, in order to adequately characterise the concerns regarding the persistent, bio-accumulative and toxic properties of the substance.[8] Commission Regulation 565/2006 required fu ...[+++]rther studies to be carried out for the purpose of risk evaluation, including on developmental neurotoxicity, human bio-monitoring and environmental monitoring programmes.[9] The risks caused by the use of Deca-BDE in EEE are aggravated by recent findings[10] about uncontrolled dumping of waste in the EU and in particular about illegal trade of WEEE to countries with sub-standard waste management conditions. User industry can apply for temporary exemptions from the ban following the criteria of Article 5(1)(b) of the present proposal.

For the purpose of subparagraph 3.2(a)(ii), without prejudice to column 2 of Section 8.7 of Annexes IX and X, a DNEL derived from a screening test for reproductive/developmental toxicity shall not be considered appropriate to omit a prenatal developmental toxicity study or a two-generation reproductive toxicity study.

Several days ago, I asked Dr. Franklin if during the registration process, developmental tests carried out on children were taken into consideration in all instances, because a number of groups told us that these tests were the best way of assessing risk.
