Impact/Purpose:

In this report, we summarize publications resulting from this research effort, discuss the significance of this work for other biologically-based dose response (BBDR) applications, and provide journal reprints of two of these publications and a Web link to the scientific journal containing the third publication.

Description:

The National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) has conducted and supported research addressing uncertainties in 2-stage clonal growth models for cancer as applied to formaldehyde. In this report, we summarized publications resulting from this research effort, discussed the significance of this work for other biologically-based dose response (BBDR) applications, and provided journal reprints of two of these publications and a Web link to the scientific journal containing the third publication.
