Parvinder Kaur at al. (2025) Challenges in the interpretation of DNT endpoints and their regulatory implications

Developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) studies are designed to provide information on potential functional, behavioural and morphological effects on the developing nervous system after in utero and early-life exposure to chemical compounds. The current in vivo testing paradigm for DNT includes OECD TG 426, US EPA OPPTS 870.6300 and OECD TG 443 with the inclusion of DNT cohorts.

Michail Gioutlakis et. al. (2025) Benchmark Dose Modelling in human tox and environmental risk assessment

Benchmark Dose (BMD) Modelling is an approach used to derive toxicological endpoints for environmental (ERA) and human risk assessment. The aim of a BMD approach is to determine a dose-level that triggers a measurable change in a relevant toxicological parameter following exposure to a chemical, i.e. the Benchmark Response (BMR).

Hanisch et al. (2025) Precise pesticide application - an earthworm field study

In the course of the advancing digitalization of agriculture, the precision application of pesticides is coming more and more into focus. Today’s technology enables farmers to apply products only on spots or areas where needed. This leads to more heterogeneous pesticide spraying patterns compared with conventional full-area application.
