Toxicological SciencesThe Hormetic Dose-Response Model Is More Common than the Threshold Model in Toxicology
412 Citations2003Edward J. Calabrese
These findings challenge the long-standing belief in the primacy of the threshold model in toxicology (and other areas of biology involving dose-response relationships) and provide strong support for the hormetic-like biphasic dose- response model characterized by a low-dose stimulation and a high-dose inhibition.
Human & Experimental ToxicologyChemical hormesis: its historical foundations as a biological hypothesis
276 Citations2000Edward J. Calabrese, L.A. Baldwin
The early history of hormesis-related experimental research is reconstructed and a foundation is provided for the assessment of how the concept of hormetic dose-response relationships may have affected the nature of the bioassay especially with respect to hazard assessment practices within a modern risk assessment Eramework.
