As many of you reading this will know, my previous Toxic Blog #6 raised the question ‘should we rely on supplier safety data sheets (SDS) information without verifying it prior to use?’
However, considering the recent Annex II
If you compile/receive EU-compliant safety data sheets, you are probably by now aware of the updated requirements to the Annex II to EU Reach Regulation (EU 2020/878); which includes the addition of ATE data, SCLs, M-factors, endocrine disruptor information, and
Whilst researching serial poisoners I recently found an old notebook I had used when preparing for after-dinner speaking engagements. Flicking through the notebook, I realised that serial poisoners knew a thing or two about human health risk assessment.

Physicochemical properties and chemical exposure
In my first Toxic Blog#1, I talked about the way in which vapour pressure data can be used to predict whether exposure is likely to occur by inhalation, but also whether the substance is likely to
Ahead of the live training webinar ‘Introduction to Transport Classification for Safety Data Sheets’ (24th March 2020), I asked expert trainer Caroline Raine to explain the difference between classification under transport and supply (i.e. CLP) for corrosive substances.
Classification for corrosive substances
In my previous post, I talked about how a simple knowledge of physicochemical properties can go a long way when writing safety data sheets (SDS).
Well, the same can also be said of toxicology and this is the subject of
I suspect that for those of you who receive supplier SDS, the answer to the question will be the same as mine…YES!
On a personal note, I find that inconsistent Safety Data Sheets leads to endless frustration and time wasted
