This is a good summary of the various sources and a list of all of the ones we could identify from the various peer reviewed literature.

Danielle:
The National Library of Medicine's TOXNET service has a rather comprehensive database of peer-reviewed literature on teratogens and mutagens (www.nlm.nih.gov) including non-US research and sources.

Hello All,< /p>

 < /p>

I’m wondering if anyone has dealt with training scientists (chemists and biologists) on potential reproductive hazards in the laboratory. < /p>

 < /p>

I work for a biotech company, and currently we have 7 pregnant employees (110 employees total). All of these employees are in the medicinal chemistry group.  It has been my experience that the pregnant employees are very cautious and knowledgeable about the hazards they are working with, however not all of their co-workers are. < /p>

 < /p>

My company would like me to present a training or seminar of some sort that educates and informs all laboratory workers of the reproductive hazards they work with.< /p>

 < /p>

Has anyone else done this before? Any resources or suggestions?

 < /p>

Thank you.< /p>
