IUCLID: an information management tool for existing chemicals and biocides

J Chem Inf Comput Sci. 2003 May-Jun;43(3):779-86. doi: 10.1021/ci0202786.

Abstract

Because of the large number of chemicals to be risk assessed within the European Union, an electronic data reporting and management tool, IUCLID, was developed supporting all three steps of the risk assessment process, namely data collection, priority-setting, and risk assessment. This paper gives an overview of the IUCLID software, which has been updated and adapted to also be used for the notification phase of the Biocides Program of the European Commission.
