metabolic behaviour of plutonium

(2) In this section, “injury” includes death, malformation, permanent metabolic or physiological disfunction, growth retardation or psychological or behavioural alteration that occurs during pregnancy, at birth or in the postnatal period.

With some of the work done on the Great Lakes, the Jacobson study and various other studies that have been done, we are seeing subtle changes in behaviour, developmental things, reproductive problems, different types of cancers, metabolic changes, all of those types of changes going on where people are taking this mixture in.

The new assessment by the rapporteur Member State and the new conclusion by the EFSA concentrated on the concerns that lead to the non-inclusion, which were due to the release in the environment of large amounts of known and unknown polychlorinated impurities, for which no information on persistency, toxicological behaviour, uptake from crops, accumulation, metabolic fate and residue level were available, as well as to the inconclusive nature of the consumer risk assessment and to the risk of groundwater potential contamination, for birds, mammals, aquatic organisms and other non-target organism.

(4) As the first step of the evaluation programme the substances of the register should receive FL-numbers according to their chemical characteristics and should be distributed in groups of structurally related compounds which are expected to show some metabolic and biological behaviour in common.
