Dose-Response Assessment

Dose-Response Assessment is a method used to evaluate how different amounts (doses) of a substance—like a chemical or drug—affect living organisms' health or behavior. Basically, it examines the relationship between the dose of a substance and the severity or likelihood of an effect. Scientists use this assessment to determine safe exposure levels, helping to protect human health and the environment by understanding potential risks. It’s an essential step in evaluating the safety of chemicals, medications, and pollutants to inform regulations and guidelines.
