Abstract | The limited ability of animal tests to predict human reactions to chemicals is recognized generally. Tests in man represent a logical step to full-scale use of a chemical. The fact that even hypersensitivity is basically dose-realted emphasizes the importance of a continuing surveillance of workers or other persons whose exposure is intensive and prolonged in order to detect idiosyncrasy as well as overt toxicity at the earliest possible moment. |
