Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
This paper summarises the aquatic ecotoxicity data submitted in the REACH1 registration dossiers and disseminated by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA2). The analysis describes both the guidelines and the species mostly used by registrants. Non-OECD guidelines have been extensively used, in particular in covering of fish and aquatic invertebrate studies, but the main concern is that in 22–36% of the cases, depending on the endpoint, no information on the methodological approach and potential equivalences to test guidelines has been provided. As expected, most studies were conducted with those species typically used in laboratory ecotoxicity testing; nevertheless, the database provides a broad range of available species, covering the most relevant taxonomic groups for both freshwater and marine systems, although most are just occasionally used. This species diversity is essential for higher tier testing strategies, including the use of Species Sensitivity Distribution approaches. The assessment suggests that collecting available information has been the main approach used by registrants to fulfil their REACH information requirements for this first REACH registration deadline. Many studies are disclosed for the first time, and all are available through searchable web tools. |
