Abstract

The 25th Screening Information Data Set (SIDS) Initial Assessment Meeting (SIAM 25) was held in Helsinki, hosted by Finland. The initial assessment documents of 1,3-di-o-tolylguanidine (CAS number: 97-39-2) were submitted by the Japanese Government without the collaboration with International Council of Chemical Associations (ICCA). SIAM 26 was held at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) headquarters in Paris, France. The initial assessment documents of two substances, p-toluic acid (CAS number: 99-94-5) and sodium sulfite (CAS number: 7757-83-7) were submitted by the Japanese Government with or without the collaboration with ICCA. All SIDS Initial Assessment Profiles (SIAPs) of the substances were agreed at the meetings. In this report, the documents of these substances are introduced.
