- Abstract
Recommendations for Reducing the USE of Fish and Amphibians in Endocrine-Disruption Testing of Biocides and Plant Protection Products in Europe Criteria for determining the endocrine-disrupting (ED) properties of biocide (European Union [EU] Regulation 2017/2100) and plant protection product (PPP) active substances (EU Regulation 2018/605) entered into force on 6 June and 10 November 2018, respectively. In the present article, we estimate the number of fish and amphibians required for ED testing, based on registered PPPs and biocides in Europe. 1 Estimated number of animals required for ED testing of registered pesticide and biocide active substances, based on range-finding and definitive testing, and adjusted for failure rates.
