Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Appendix R.6-1

for nanomaterials applicable to the Guidance on QSARs and Grouping of Chemicals

This appendix to Chapter R.6 of the guidance on IR&CSA has been developed in order to provide advice to registrants preparing registration dossiers that cover nanoforms.

This document is aimed at providing an approach on how to justify the use of hazard data between nanoforms (and the non-nanoform(s)) and within groups of nanoforms of the same substance. It is presented as an Appendix to Chapter R.6 of the Guidance on IR&CSA on QSARs and Grouping because general concepts on grouping of chemicals are applicable to nanomaterials. Please note that no specific advice for QSARs with respect to nanomaterials is provided in this version of the guidance, as at present the state of the art does not allow provision of recommendations in this respect.
