Chemicals Dashboard Help: Product Use Categories Search

In addition to the basic single chemical search from the homepage, one can use the search tab for Product Use Category.

CompTox Chemicals Dashboard home page, https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard, with search box in the center. Note tabs for product use category and assay / gene above the search box.

Selecting the Product Use Category (PUC) tab and entering a search like “adhesive” gives a drop-down list of PUCs which include adhesive. These product use category associations come from EPA’s Chemical and Products Database (CPDat) database. Selecting one of the product use categories takes the user to a chemical list result listing chemicals with that PUC.
