Several pigments are already the subject of international Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) SIDS sponsorship. Several more pigments have been added to those already sponsored under the OECD program. In the United States, unnecessary testing can be avoided with the use of Structural Activity Relationship (SAR) analysis, whereby risk assessment data developed for very similar analogous substances are substituted for new data on the target com-...

The United Nations Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) includes an internationally standardized guidance procedure on Transformation/Dissolution Protocol (T/DP) for metals and sparingly soluble metal compounds (United Nations, 2007), recently validated by the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development). To establish the acute aquatic hazard classification level of a metal-bearing substance under the GHS, data from the T/DP are compared with an acute ecotoxicity reference value (ERV) derived under conditions similar to those of the T/DP. 

The international issues raised by TSCA interface with several arenas -- including the State Department, Commerce Department, EPA, the Organization for Economic... 

The previous example (which incidentally is not entirely fictional) shows that a discrepancy of 0.4 kJ mol-1 in the standard enthalpy of formation of methane has some economic impact.

A major amendment was made to the Japanese Chemical Substances Control Law in April 2004 on the recommendations made by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in the Environmental Conservation Review - Further Expansion of the Regulation Scope for Conservation of Ecosystem in line with the Agenda 21 - Human Action Program for Sustainable Development of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED). In order to conform to international harmonisation, the amended Chemical Substances Control Law has introduced a new examination and regulation system to prevent not only hazards to human health but also damages to animals and plants.
