Abstract
The report gives results of an examination of data from three pilot studies including water effluent, fluidized-bed combustion, and coal gasification samples, using a scheme to compare health effects and ecological bioassay assessment data. The scheme is based on the assumption that each test method has a maximum dose (concentration) which can be reliably applied and that effects based on fractions of the maximum applicable dose (MAD) can be designated as degrees of toxicity. The levels of toxicity based on fractions of the MAD are given as high, moderate, low, and nondetectable (i.e., no effect detected at the MAD).
