Insect Repellents will be regulated under Biocidal Product Directive (BPD) in the EU Existing active substances are currently under review (like IR3535). Active substances which pass the review will be listed in a positive list in Annex I of the BPD (time line for IR3535: listing in Annex I in about end of 2013 or beginning of 2014). The date of the listing of an active substance in Annex I is the deadline for submission of dossiers for existing products. Overall Goals of BPD:

In 1997, EPA-OPP's Biochemical Classification Committee classified IR3535 as a biochemical, based on facts that it is functionally identical to naturally occurring beta alanine in that both repel insects, the basic molecular structure is identical, the end groups are not likely to contribute to toxicity and it acts to control the target pest via a non-toxic mode of action (1). Therefore, the insect is not affected by IR3535.
