Basic Toxicology & Ecotoxicology for Safety Data Sheets & CLP/GHS
As someone who has been teaching courses on Safety Data Sheet (SDS) authoring and CLP/GHS, I’ve noticed that many attendees often lack a basic understanding of toxicology and ecotoxicology.
In fact, the questions that are frequently asked during my training courses suggest that there’s a limited experience in sourcing reliable information and a lack of understanding of the information’s significance in relation to other sections of the SDS.
That’s why I’ve created a live 2.5 hour training webinar called “Basic Toxicology & Ecotoxicology for Safety Data Sheets & CLP/GHS.” This course provides a straightforward overview of toxicology and ecotoxicology that enables SDS authors to understand the meaning of toxicological or ecotoxicological terminology and how it can be used.
Not only is this course ideal for SDS authors, but it’s also suitable for anyone involved in classification and labelling work (CLP/GHS) for health hazards, where a basic understanding of how chemicals can cause harm is essential.
The best part? This webinar is applicable for all SDS and GHS/CLP work, regardless of where you’re located in the world. Don’t let a lack of basic toxicology knowledge hold you back from producing accurate and reliable SDSs. Join the “Basic Toxicology & Ecotoxicology for Safety Data Sheets & CLP/GHS” webinar today.
What is covered in the session
Toxicology
- Basic terminology; including NOAEL, LOAEL, LD50, ATE, STOT, CMR
- Acute, sub-acute and chronic toxicity
- Carcinogens, mutagens, toxic for reproduction (CMR)
- Irritants and corrosives (skin, eyes and respiratory tract)
- Respiratory and skin sensitisers
- Specific target organ toxicity (STOT) – single and repeated exposures
- Aspiration toxicity
- Endocrine disruptors
- Types of data- in vivo, in vitro, ex vivo, in silico.
- Data sources
- Basic terminology including LC50, NOEL, LOEL
- Food chains
- Acute and chronic aquatic toxicity
- Terrestrial toxicity
- Persistence,biotic and abiotic degradation, aerobic/anaerobic degradation & rapid degradation.
- Bioaccumulation, biomagnification
- PBT and vPvB
Throughout the webinar, examples will be used to illustrate key points.
This brand new training webinar is specifically designed for SDS authors/recipients of SDS. However, the toxicology and ecotoxicology theory which is covered would also be useful for classification and labelling work (CLP/GHS).
- Training notes complementing the webinar
- Copy of all slides used during the training
- Copy of the live recording
- Certificate of attendance (if required)
- You can also ask questions at any time during or after the training webinar clas
