Estrogenic Activity Database (EADB)

EADB overview, access, citations, and contact information

About EADB

NCTR has developed an Estrogenic Activity Database (EADB) and made it openly available. EADB assembles a comprehensive set of estrogenic activity data from a variety of data sources and is a component of the enhanced Endocrine Disruptors Knowledge Base (EDKB). It contains 18,114 estrogenic-activity data points collected for 8,212 chemicals tested in 1,284 binding assays, reporter-gene assays, cell-proliferation assays, and in-vivo assays in 11 different species. EADB has a set of database functions for searching chemicals and estrogenic activity data, browsing the database, and exporting data.
