1. Derivation of Hazard Quotient
Risks were characterized using the HQ approach (Nabholz 1991). HQs can be used to characterize the
probability of adverse effects to ecological receptors and often focuses on phylogenetic groups (e.g.,
algae, invertebrates, and fish). HQs are defined as the quotient of the PECs and PNECs:
𝐻𝑄 =
𝑃𝐸𝐶
𝑃𝑁𝐸𝐶
If a PEC is less than a PNEC the likelihood that an organism will be impacted by the ingredient is low.
In contrast, the assumption that an…

The iSTREEM® model (https://www.istreem.org/) integrates the locations of municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with a hydrologic river network, providing a framework to assess environmental risk in a spatial context. The model has been widely applied for ecological risk
assessments of down-the-drain (DtD) chemicals in the U.S. To address growing challenges outside the U.S., the model was recently expanded to include Canada and Mexico by integrating country-specific WWTP infrastructure…
The American Cleaning Institute is listening to families and communities who want to know more about the ingredients in their cleaning products.
For moms and dads who want to know more than ever before about the products they use, SmartLabel is the digital shopping tool/app that gives access to timely updates on products across more store aisles and with more information than could ever fit standard labels. It’s the trusted information you’re looking for to help make the right choices for your…
Here's what the cleaning product supply chain is saying about ingredient communication:
"Consumer education is a key part of achieving empowerment through the “right to understand” principle. Education efforts are designed to reach people where they are and creates awareness of the tools and information available."
