How do regulatory frameworks impact toxicological studies?
Regulatory frameworks such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals) in the EU and TSCA (Toxic Substances Control Act) in the US play a significant role. These regulations require comprehensive toxicological data for chemical substances, including catalysts, to ensure they do not pose significant risks to human health and the environment. Compliance with these regulations necessitates rigorous toxicological evaluations.
