Conference will address the need for the exchange of scientific
information among experts on issues related to environmental
toxicology, toxicity assessment and hazardous waste management. With
large numbers of new chemicals entering the market every year, it has
become necessary to assess their effects on ecosystems as well as
minimise their impact on the environment.
The science of Environmental Toxicology is one of the most
interdisciplinary. Biologists, microbiologists chemists, engineers,
environmentalists, ecologists and other scientists have worked hand in
hand within this new discipline. The issue of assessment of
environmental effects of chemicals is very complex. It depends on the
organism tested and involves not only toxicity testing of single
chemicals but also interactive effects such as genotoxicity,
mutagenicity and immunotoxicity testing. There is a growing need for
techniques and practices to minimise the environmental effects of
chemicals and for the implementation of the corresponding principles in
the planning of environmental policy and decision-making.
