Household Products Database

This evaluation is on the way. The different stakeholders have made their proposals regarding what should be modified or supplemented. Our proposals like improvement of transparency, installation of a positive list, and a household product database (HPDB) have been published some weeks ago, including the topic REACH and RISKCYCLE [14]. This article only covers the topic RISKCYCLE, but more in depth. 

Some SIS products help to address the toxicology and environmental health information needs of the general public. One such resource is ToxTown, an interactive guide to toxic chemicals and environmental health issues in everyday locations. It is a companion to the extensive information in the TOXNET collection of databases. The Household Products Database is a consumer s guide that provides information on the potential health effects of chemicals contained in more than 5000 common household products used inside and around the home. This database allows consumers, scientists, and health professionals to investigate ingredients in brand-name products. 

This huge data file covers over 4500 potentially hazardous chemical substances. It contains information on human exposure, industrial hygiene, emergency-handling procedures, environmental fate, regulatory requirements, and related areas. All data are referenced and derived from a core set of books, government documents, technical reports and selected primary journal literature. HSDB is peer-reviewed by the Scientific Review Panel (SRP), a committee of experts in the major subject areas within the data bank s scope. (Data-Star, DIMDI, STN Easy, TOXNET available as part of TOMES PLUS by Micromedex). Household Products Database ...

MSDS Toxicologists apply mathematical models and knowledge of similar substances to toxicity data to estimate safe human exposure levels. How can you obtain this information Every employer is required to keep Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) of the potentially hazardous chemicals they use in their workplace. The MSDS describe possible health effects, clothing and eye protection that should be worn, and first-aid steps to follow after exposure. You can also consult the Household Products Database, which provides health and safety information on more than 5000 commonly used products.

The usage of 1,4-E)CB in the United States changed over time. By the late 1990s, authorities reported that although 1,4-EXZB was used principally (25-55% of all uses) as a space deodorant for toilets and trash containers, and to control moths, molds, and mildews, other uses were increasing. The production of PPS resin accounted for approximately 50% of 1,4-EXZB consumption, and the production of chemicals such as 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene another 10% [55]. As described below, the use of 1,4-DCB as a monomer in polymer production had continued to grow by 2013. As of 2014, a household products database listed only three products available in the United States containing...
