Genetic Toxicology within the Framework of the Plant Protection Regulation

Genetic Toxicology within the Framework of the Plant Protection Regulation

This training is aiming to give you the basic knowledge of genetic toxicology within the framework of Regulation 1107/2009, with an overview of assay conduct, data generation and evaluation. In a compact format of an intensive morning and afternoon session, you get an overview of the regulatory approved genotoxicity tests available in the context of Regulation 1107/2009, guidance on groundwater metabolites and guidance on the establishment of the residue definition. You also learn the relevance of historical control data to aid assay acceptability and data interpretation.
