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…
Physical Properties of Glycerine
HE extremely wide range of uses T for glycerine is due in large mea-
sure not to a single property, but to
its unique combination of properties.
Nature made glycerol the most
widely distributed of the polyhydric
alcohols, as combined in fats and
other lipids essential to life pro-
cesses. Derivatives dependent on its
chemical structure have now been
extended to virtually every field of
research and technology, from ex-
plosives to emulsifiers.…
