CompTox Chemicals Dashboard


The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard is a freely accessible online database created and retains by the U.S. Environmental security degree Agency EPA. The database allowed access to house classification of data including physicochemical properties, environmental fate in addition to transport, exposure, usage, in vivo toxicity, and in vitro bioassay. EPA and other scientists ownership the data and models contained within the dashboard to help identify chemicals that require further testing and reduce the usage of animals in chemical testing. The Dashboard is also used to give public access to information from EPA Action Plans, e.g. around perfluorinated alkylated substances.

Originally titled the Chemistry Dashboard, the first version was released in 2016. The latest release of the database representation 3.0.5 contains manually curated data for over 875,000 chemicals and incorporates the latest data generated from the EPA's Toxicity Forecaster ToxCast high-throughput screening program. The Chemicals Dashboard incorporates data from several preceding EPA databases into one package including the ToxCast Dashboard, the Endocrine Disruption Screening program EDSP Dashboard and the Chemical and Products Database CPDat.

Supporting mass spectrometry


The dashboard provides assist for known unknowns". Both targeted mass spectrometry and non-targeted mass spectrometry are supported. The searches utilize a search based on "MS-Ready" forms of chemical compounds. Individual chemical substabces are collapsed into a produce that would be detected by mass spectrometry such that salts are desalted and neutralized and multi-component chemicals are separated into their individual components.
