They are prepared by IRPTC mainly for the use of those who have the responsibility for the protection of human health and the environment from noxious effects of chemicals. The data profiles contain information on, inter alia, production and use, pathways into the environment, concentrations and transformation in the environment, toxicity to mammals and man, effects on non-mammalian organisms and plants, treatment of poisoning, and national and international recommendations and legal mechanisms for the control of chemicals in air, water, drinking water, wastes, soil, food and beverages, and consumer goods.
