Hazard Characterisation
Our hazard assessments, generally based on in-depth searches of the scientific literature, aim to define the dose-response for all routes of each of a chemical’s toxicological propensities, for example its carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, or ability to disrupt reproduction.
We summarise all of the available data in a transparent format, taking into account the needs of our clients – for example, if there is a specific structure or format required to comply with a particular regulation.
As experienced risk assessors ourselves we are well placed to ensure that our hazard characterisation – the potential to induce a harm - provides the best possible platform the available data (and budget) will allow for any subsequent risk assessment, a judgement as to whether those harms will actually be seen in a specific circumstance.
