What is REACH and how does it relate to Toxicology?
REACH is a comprehensive regulation that stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals. It is a cornerstone of ECHAâs work and has significant implications for toxicology. REACH requires companies to gather information on the properties and hazards of chemicals, assess risks, and manage them appropriately. This results in improved safety information for toxicologists and helps in the assessment of chemical risks to human health and the environment.
