"Evidence of bioaccumulation in field monitoring and regulatory testing indicates that existing guidelines to screen for bioaccumulation may not capture all organic chemicals that bioaccumulate. This project aims to:

2. evaluate whether these are fit for purpose as regulatory tools in support of UK REACH chemical registration requirements."
