OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals (OECD TG) are a set of internationally accepted specifications for the testing of chemicals decided on by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). They were first published in 1981. They are split into five sections: Section 1: Physical Chemical Properties
According to OECD Council Decision C(97)186/Final, chemical testing data generated in any OECD member country following OECD Test Guidelines and GLP principles is recognized by other OECD member countries, such as Australia, Canada, Korea, and the USA. This recognition also extends to some non-OECD countries that fully adhere to the mutual ...

In 1998, the FOB was published in the late 1990s as EPA Human Health 870 Series Test Guidelines, [1] [5] [6] and in praxis the Irwin screen and the FOB "overlap and to some extent are interchangeable." [1] The American batteries were harmonised with the OECD's from the same era.
Good manufacturing practice guidelines provide guidance for manufacturing, testing, and quality assurance in order to ensure that a manufactured product is safe for human consumption or use. Many countries have legislated that manufacturers follow GMP procedures and create their own GMP guidelines that correspond with their legislation.
To meet or exceed the OECD Guideline 301B criteria for "readily biodegradable", [39] a sample must produce 60% of the theoretical amount of carbon dioxide (TCO 2) within a 10-day window of reaching 10% TCO 2. The LEFA used in the study had a final average cumulative percent biodegradation of 92.0% and the test solution had a pH of 7.1 at the ...
The OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals guideline No. 406 of 1992. [3] The test has been largely superseded by the murine local lymph node assay. D.A. Basketter and E.W. Scholes reviewed them in 1992 [4] The REACH Regulation, Annex VII, paragraph 8.3 states "The Murine Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA) is the first-choice method for in ...

[4] However, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has begun to approve non-animal alternatives in response to research cruelty concerns and the lack of validity/sensitivity ...
