Fundamental aspects of dose--response relationships and their extrapolation for noncarcinogenic effects of metals.

Fundamental differences in dose--response relationships between "stochastic" and "nonstochastic" effects of chemicals are identified and discussed. The difficulties in extrapolating into the low-dose region of dose--response curves are pointed out. In some instances of nonstochas...
