It assesses risks (chemical, biological, physical, etc.) to which an individual may be exposed at all ages and at all times of his life, whether it be exposure at work, during transport, during leisure activities, or through food.
ANSES also assesses efficacy and risks of veterinary medicines, phytopharmaceutical products, fertilizers, crop carriers and their adjuvants, as well as biocides, in order to issue marketing authorizations.
