Veterinary Substances DataBase (VSDB)
Veterinary pharmaceuticals are biologically active and potentially persistent substances which are recognised as a continuing threat to environmental quality. Whilst the environmental risk of agricultural pesticides has had considerable attention in recent decades, risks assessments for veterinary pharmaceuticals have only relatively recently begun to be addressed. Risk assessments and risk modelling tend to be inherently data hungry processes and one of the main obstacles to consistent, accurate and efficient assessments is the need for a reliable, quality and comprehensive data source. The Veterinary Substances DataBase (VSDB) from the Agriculture & Environment Research Unit (AERU) at the University of Hertfordshire provides a comprehensive relational database of physicochemical and toxicological data for these substances.
