In the Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) sector, toxicology plays an important role in both new product development, ongoing product stewardship of commercial products and regulatory submissions to demonstrate the acceptability, safety and compliance of a particular product.
Toxicological studies aid the design, development, modification, stewardship and authorization of ENDS products. Broughton Nicotine Services provide toxicological strategies and services to support ENDS manufacturers in the following key areas:
Toxicological studies involve a tiered approach of data gathering and risk assessment depending upon the ENDS product. The ultimate objective is to develop an informed and scientifically justified assessment of the risk to health presented by an ENDS product. This involves considering the nature of any hazard presented by an ingredient, exposure levels and the dose response, which collectively enable risk characterization.
