English term or phrase: proprietary knowledge
Contexte : les risques causés par des produits chimiques / pesticides

The paucity of data available in the public literature reflects a determination of de minimis human and environmental risks posed by these chemicals based upon considerable proprietary knowledge accepted by the United States regulatory authorities and a long history of pervasive use.

Explanation:
