Toxic equivalency factors for dioxin-like PCBs.
The WHO-European Centre for Environment and Health (WHO-ECEH) and the International Programme on Chemical Safety (IPCS), have initiated a project to create a data base containing information relevant to the setting of Toxic Equivalency Factors (TEFs), and, based on the available information, to assess the relative potencies and to derive consensus TEFs for PCDDs, PCDFs and dioxin-like PCBs. Ava...
متن کاملWhat experiments are suitable to access the prediction of toxic effects of chemicals?
In this paper we discuss problems related to different topics of empirical AI while approaching the toxicity prediction problem. In particular we discuss the choice of the data to be used for training, we design our experiments following theoretical choices arising from the application field (for instance relative to classification of compounds), we present results obtained through machine lear...
متن کاملWhy XSL is not suitable for Semantic Translation
Recently, XML [XML] has been extended with a capability, called XSLT, [XSL] for translating XML data compliant with one DTD into XML compliant with another DTD. This approach has been hailed as the general solution for data transformation in database systems that can solve any and all data integration problems by providing a simple way for transforming data. In this note I will briefly review t...
متن کاملToxic equivalency factors (TEFs) for PCBs, PCDDs, PCDFs for humans and wildlife.
An expert meeting was organized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and held in Stockholm on 15-18 June 1997. The objective of this meeting was to derive consensus toxic equivalency factors (TEFs) for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and dioxinlike polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) for both human, fish, and wildlife risk assessment. Based on existing literat...
