Screening assessment poly(bios) group . : En14-342/2018E-PDF

"These five substances were previously evaluated under the Second Phase of Polymer Rapid Screening, which identified tannins, humic acid and oxidized starch as having low potential to cause ecological harm, and SEGAC and GEGAC as having low potential to cause harm to human health. However, they were identified as requiring further assessment for potential human health or ecological risks on the basis of structural alerts and/or uses associated with significant consumer exposure. The present assessment further elaborates on the potential for tannins, humic acid, and oxidized starch to cause harm to human health, and for SEGAC and GEGAC to cause ecological harm, in order to reach an overall conclusion under section 64 of CEPA as to whether they pose a risk to the environment or human health"--p. iii.
