Oxidative Substances Coalition - Introductory Session

Steptoe LLP is collecting interest from companies to form an industry coalition on genotoxicity testing issues for oxidative substances.

Due to their oxidising properties, oxidative substances may yield inconclusive, unreliable and/or false positive results under standard mutagenicity studies. The purpose of the coalition will be to share experiences with testing of oxidative substances for genotoxic endpoints and to identify actions to address this issue. 
Participation is open to all companies owning, relying or expecting to rely on such tests for their substances, regardless of the regulatory context (REACH, CLP, BPR, cosmetics) and to organizations involved in non-animal testing methods.

If you fit this description and would like to hear more, please use the link below link to register for our introductory session on Thursday 15 May. The purpose of this session will be to explain in more details the scientific concern, as well as the intended purpose and functioning of the coalition. No confidential information, including details about specific testing results or regulatory strategies for individual substances, will be exchanged.

Participants wishing to join the coalition will be invited to confirm their interest in a second stage.
