Comments on the Jayjock et al. paper.
نویسنده
چکیده
Establishing hormesis as an evolution-based biological phenomenon requires a broad discussion of its implications for currently used risk paradigms. The Jayjock et al. papers provide an industrial hygienist's perspective and, as such, represent a valuable contribution to this discussion. Our comments outline a toxicologist's view on the limits and practicability of the Jayjock et al. suggestions. The arguments are primarily based on the shape of dose and time responses and associated variabilities and uncertainties.
