Dear DCHAS Listserv members:
The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has a document with rather extensive content about “STOT SE” (Specific Target Organ Toxicity, Single Exposure) and “STOT RE” (Specific Target Organ Toxicity, Repeated Exposure).
If interested, please see:

Subject: [DCHAS-L] SDS acronym | STOT
Valued colleagues:
I’m reading several SDS from our vendor (Chemwatch) and finding the acronym/initialism: STOT.
Most reasonable definition I’ve been able to find is
Specific Target Organ Toxicity.
Is that correct? Is this a new abbreviation? A very old one?
