For 245 industrial chemicals, BG Chemie (after 2010 its legal successor is BG RCI) has published TOXICOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS. They give an overview on the acute and chronic effects of the substances and evaluate the data on the genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, reproductive toxicity, immunological and neurotoxic effects and the experiences in humans. The TOXICOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS are available in different versions which can either be downloaded or obtained free of charge. In addition, BG Chemie has performed 432 experimental studies with 129 phase-in substances. The studies are described in the TOXICOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS and can be obtained from BG RCI for registration under REACH.
