چکیده

OEHHA prioritizes chemicals for consideration by the Developmental and Reproductive Toxicant (DART) Identification Committee of OEHHA’s Science Advisory Board using the process described in the document entitled "Procedure for Prioritizing Candidate Chemicals for Consideration Under Proposition 65 by the State's Qualified Experts". The process involves selecting from chemicals proposed for evaluation by the DART Identification Committee and evaluating the potential levels of developmental/reproductive toxicity concern through review of information available from secondary sources. Secondary sources consulted include: databases such as ReprotoxTM, Reprotext®, Shepard’s Catalog of Teratogenic Agents and RTECS®; publications by bodies such as USEPA, ATSDR, IPCS; and standard texts such as Reproductive Hazards Of Industrial Chemicals, and Chemically Induced Birth Defects. Data summaries, which provide an overview of the data available in secondary sources, were prepared for each of these chemicals, and each chemical was assigned a draft level of developmental/reproductive toxicological concern. The draft data summaries were released for public comment on September 12, 1997. The priority status for chemicals in this group for which no comments were received have been finalized, as shown below. The priority status for the remaining chemicals in this group will remain draft until the submissions received have been evaluated. At that time, an ammended list of final priorities and data summaries will be released.
