IUCLID major release (version 8.0.1) including format updates
A new major version of IUCLID, including format changes, is available for download from the IUCLID website.
The format changes include updates relevant to all IUCLID users such as:
- The extension of the format of the Robust Study Summaries, which are part of the OECD Harmonised Templates (OHTs), to include fields relevant to the OECD QSAR Assessment Framework
- The OHTs have also been updated to follow the evolution of the OECD Test Guidelines
- The completion of the harmonisation of the Use and exposure information templates between EU REACH and the OECD
Format changes that are relevant to specific stakeholders are also included, for example:
- Updates of the Classification and Labelling information following the latest changes in the CLP Regulation
- Further improvements for several dossier types under the EU Biocidal Products Regulation: Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC), Biocidal product authorisation and Active substance application
- Finalisation of a first version of the format supporting the future notifications and applications under the EU Drinking Water Directive
- Improvements for EFSA-related information in the domain of the EU Plant Protection Products legislation
The full documentation of the format (v8) can be found on the website.
All fixes and improvements for this release are listed in the release notes. For example the report templates and the validation rules were adapted to the format changes and improved. In addition, a known migration issue detected with the previous IUCLID release has been solved. Before upgrading to the new version, we recommend to check the list of known issues and the latest fixes in the FAQ section of the website.
The update of instances of IUCLID in the ECHA Cloud Services will start during the week of the release.
A webinar explaining the most relevant aspects of this release will take place on the 16th of May, during which our experts will be available to answer your questions.
