Chemical Risk Assessment Goes NGRA
Next Generation Risk Assessment (NGRA) – assessing the risk of chemicals using new strategies that are animal-free, safer, more effective, and more sustainable
Throughout our lives, we are exposed to a wide range of chemicals, making the safe handling of chemicals very important. At present, legally mandated risk assessments are conducted using classical toxicology, based on data from animal testing. Researchers at Fraunhofer ITEM are actively contributing to the paradigm shift towards animal-free, safer, more effective, and more sustainable risk assessments. They are developing new assessment strategies known as "Next Generation Risk Assessment."
