Online Training: UVCB Substances – Definition, E-fate,Testing and Classification

UVCB substances present some of the most challenging questions in chemical assessment.

This two-day online training will help you navigate challenges relating to chemicals of Unknown or Variable composition, Complex reaction products, or Biological materials (UVCB Substances) with confidence. Learn how to characterise complex mixtures, design suitable fate and ecotoxicity studies, interpret difficult data, and build robust regulatory dossiers. With practical examples and hands-on insights, this course is ideal for anyone involved in testing, evaluating, or registering UVCBs.

• gain a clear understanding of how to characterise and assess UVCBs effectively

• receive practical strategies to handle variability, uncertainty, and complex fate/ecotox behaviour

• receive guidance on building a consistent, defensible regulatory dossier for UVCBs
