<p>The EPA CPCat
(Chemical and Product Categories) database was released in May 2014. It maps
>43,000 chemicals to a set of terms categorizing their usage or function. We
have compiled a comprehensive list of chemicals with associated categories of
chemical and product use by compiling publicly available sources. Sources
include, but are not limited to: the Substances in Preparation in Nordic
Countries (SPIN) database, information provided by companies, trade
associations, and regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the DrugBank database of
pharmaceutical products, and information mined from the Aggregated
Computational Toxicology Resource (ACToR) database developed by the U.S. EPA.
Unique use category taxonomies from each source are mapped onto a single common
set of ~800 terms. The user can search for chemicals by chemical name, Chemical
Abstracts Registry Number (CASRN), or by CPCat terms (i.e. category names)
associated with chemicals. See Dionisio et al., 2014 for a full description of
the database, sources used, interpretation of chemical categories, and
potential applications. The .zip file available at the "Download" tab
of this website provides a full copy of the database, available for free
download, which can be freely searched and sorted for data analysis. The .zip
file includes a list of all chemicals included in CPCat. A list of all sources
included in CPCat is provided in the table below.</p>
