Review of potential PBT/vPvB substances in PRIO

PRIO has been updated with new substances that meet the criteria for potential PBT/vPvB. Such substances are suspected of having persistent (poorly degradable), bioaccumulative (accumulate in living organisms) and toxic, alternatively very persistent and very bioaccumulative properties.

In connection with the review of potential PBT/vPvB substances in PRIO, the Swedish Chemicals Agency has also updated the text describing the property potential PBT/vPvB and the reference PBT/vPvB assessment, ECHA.
