Information Services
We provide a range of services relating to the provision of timely and accurate information in the field of chemical toxicology and risk and hazard assessment.
- A unique understanding of the relative values of different information sources, and application of a variety of pragmatic, yet comprehensive, search methodologies, ensures that we capture data in the most efficient way possible.
- Our skills in searching toxicity data sources are world-class and cover both internal and external information sources.
- A key, and unique, information source is our own in-house databank of more than 500,000 critical documents on the health effects of chemicals, along with TRACE, its associated database. Check our extensive ToxLook list to see if we have information on chemicals that are of interest to you.
- Using the above facilities, we are able to expertly locate and summarise data
according to your requirements, provide accurate information on the health effects and legislative status of selected chemicals, identify specific documents speedily and efficiently, and prepare comprehensive bibliographic reference lists on defined issues. - We can assist in the interpretation of new guidelines and requirements for regulatory approvals on any aspects of health or safety legislation.
- A range of bespoke current awareness services can be provided, including regular updates of company-specific safety profiles on defined chemicals, and customised searches at agreed intervals for data on specified products (see page on bespoke current awareness services for more information).
- And, perhaps uniquely among any toxicology consulting company, we publish an authoritative and highly respected monthly current awareness bulletin – Toxicology and Regulatory News – which contains expert commentaries on key toxicological reports.
