Exponent invites you to a free training workshop on the EFSA Residue Definition Guidance.
In December 2016, the EFSA published draft guidance for the setting of residue definitions for risk assessment in the EU. The guidance introduces new technical requirements and concepts for assessing the relevance of metabolites for dietary risk assessment. The EFSA has proposed a stepwise process including genotoxicity, general toxicity and exposure assessments.
This free workshop is aimed towards, but not exclusively, regulatory managers who want to gain a greater understanding of the requirements and implications of the approaches proposed in the guidance.
The workshop will cover the following topics:
An overview of the guidance
QSAR and read-across assessment
Genotoxicity and general toxicity testing strategies
TTC exposure assessment
The toxicological burden and selection of a residue definition
Space is limited and will be allocated on a first come first serve basis, with a maximum of two employees per organisation.
