The latest Chemical Watch News & Insight podcast explores a slate of newly approved bills from California, why the end-of-year deadline to register substances in Taiwan is important, and a fuel preservative that is still in use in the EU despite not having undergone a full safety assessment.

In this episode, North America desk editor Julia John talks about California legislation that could limit phthalates in IV bags, bisphenols in children's products, and more. Asia senior reporter Uzair Aftab talks about how businesses are dealing with Taiwan's upcoming deadline for registering more than 100 priority existing chemicals. Finally, senior reporter on biocides, Vanessa Zainzinger, joins us to talk about Biobor JR, an exempted jet fuel preservative, and how it came to enter – and stay – on the EU market.

After listening to the podcast, be sure to stay on top of the latest news on these developments and more from Enhesa's Chemical Watch News & Insight.
