## Abstract Handling uncertainty in the current European Union (EU) risk assessment of new and existing substances is problematic for several reasons. The known or quantifiable sources of uncertainty are mainly considered. Uncertainty is insufficiently, explicitly communicated to risk managers and
A systematic methodology for risk assessment of environmental pollutants is outlined. The methodology, based on multivariate quantitative structure-activity modelling, consists of six consecutive steps which are reviewed and illustrated using two examples. The two examples discussed refer to polych
Using conventional methodology, chemical risk assessment for the hundreds of thousands of chemicals currently in use is a near-impossible task. Martin Scheringer has pioneered the development of a new concept based on the criteria of persistence and spatial range, and in this book he provides the fi
