Description | EPA’s Aggregated Computational Toxicology Online Resource (ACToR) aggregates data from thousands of public sources on over 500,000 chemicals. It is searchable by chemical name and other identifiers. ACToR is also the data and web applications warehouse for EPA’s computational toxicology information which includes high-throughput screening, chemical exposure, sustainable chemistry (chemical structures and physicochemical properties) and virtual tissues data. ACToR is the warehouse for EPA web applications which can be used to explore and visualize complex computational toxicology information. |
