| Abstract | Summary Objective : Using the standard crustacean and / or molluscan toxicity tests, provide a scientifically sound environmental risk assessment protocol for approving oil treatment products. Through the use of quantitative structure – activity relationships (QSARs) predict the biological activity of untested chemicals. Key Customer Purpose : Provide a transparent and cost-effective process for license applicants and other environmental stakeholders by improving confidence in the assessment of oil treatment products. Consider the future use of QSARs within statutory schemes. | |
