This database is based on a
literature analysis performed in the Laboratory
of Molecular Genetics of NICPB, partner of the
EC-FP6 project OSIRIS (Optimized Strategies for
Risk assessment of industrial chemicals through
integration of non-test and test information).
The database contains information selected
mainly from Russian scientific Journals
published during the Soviet time.
Toxicity data were collected from following
journals:
* Industrial
Hygiene and Occupational Diseases
(Gigiena truda i professional'nye
zabolevaniia, Гигиена труда и
профессиональные заболевания, ISSN
0016-9919)
*
Hydrobiological Journal
(Гидробиологический журнал, ISSN
0018-8166)
* Inland
Water Biology (Биология внутренних вод,
ISSN 1995- 0829 for print version, ISSN
1995-0837 for electronic version)
Each compound is presented on a specific page including tabs:
- General
information (CAS no, molecular weight,
synonyms, common usage),
- Toxicity
data for rodents, other vertebrates,
bacteria, protozoa, algae, crustaceans,
other non-vertebrates, plants, fish. The
ecotoxicological data tabs are green and
other toxicity data tabs are blue.
- Additional
information
- Literature
references
Currently, the E-SovTox database
contains toxicity data selected from
more than 500 articles covering more
than 600 chemicals. The user is provided
with main toxicity information as well
as abstracts of these papers in Russian
and in English (given as provided in the
original publication).
Database access
The access to the online E-SovTox
database may be given by the
administrator after agreement of the
potential user with the “Terms of use”
and filling the online application form.
For registered users there will be
established several levels of access,
each one of them requiring application
for registration and validation by the
administrator. Registered users may
propose additional data to the database.
The database was created under the
supervision of late Prof.
Henri-Charles Dubourguier
and the software was created and
improved by Nicolas
Legrand.
