Pharmaceutical Environmental Risk Assessment Database

NOAA_NCEI's database contains information for assessing pharmaceutical environmental risk, including prescribed amounts, detected environmental levels, and chemical properties. It provides toxicity data for five organism groups: algae, mollusks, finfish, crustaceans, and select terrestrial animals. The dataset aggregates chemical structure, molecular weight, and environmental persistence metrics.

Use Cases

• Model environmental persistence from chemical structure and octanol-water partition coefficients.
• Correlate water solubility and detected environmental levels with toxicity to algae, mollusks, finfish, and crustaceans.
• Assess ecological risk by comparing prescribed amounts to specific toxicity levels for terrestrial animals.
• Predict chemical behavior in aquatic environments using molecular weight and water solubility features.

Strengths

• Includes toxicity data for five distinct organism groups.
• Covers multiple chemical properties like octanol-water partition coefficients and water solubility.

Limitations

• Sample size and row count are unknown.
• Temporal coverage and update recency are unspecified.
