On 30 September, the Commission launched the Endocrine Active Substances Information System (EASIS). This web-based application, developed by the JRC, allows searching and collecting results from different scientific studies on chemicals related to endocrine activity. The implementation of EASIS is part of the Community Strategy for Endocrine Disruptors.
Chemicals that interfere with the endocrine system can potentially have adverse effects on both humans and wildlife. A wide range of chemicals used in different products are under scrutiny for endocrine disrupting properties. Some have already been tested for their ability to interact with the endocrine system. However, the resulting data are stored in various databases, often incompatible with each other due to the different formats used. This restricts the ease with which regulatory, industry and academic stakeholders can access and use the information for assessing risks connected to endocrine activity. To address this issue, the Endocrine Active Substances Information System (EASIS) was created.
