DTT Studies of Flame Retardants

We took as a case study the challenge to find work on flame retardants conducted by authors affiliated with the National Toxicology Program

Findings:
24 NTP-authored reports
26 publications in CEBS (many conducted on libraries of compounds, some FR
23 in Pubmed (and not in CEBS)  search: (affiliation = “National Toxicology Program”) and (flame)
7 in both CEBS and PubMed

We then reviewed the abstract to identify the species, cell system, duration of exposure and assays / endpoints measured. 

Result – a data set listing 70 publications, 68 distinct chemicals or chemical mixtures, and 295 chemical/publication combination (i.e. a chemical listed in a publication)
