Excerpt
Introduction: Even under the most generalized definition of health, the relationship between the environment and health may be characterized by a series of responses elicited due to the presence of causal agents. Furthermore, inherent in this relationship is the specific definition of a deleterious health effect by the magnitude of a set of acute, chronic or residual responses. Consequently, the toxicological or the epidemiological assessment of an effect or the regulatory steps taken to control a deleterious effect depend on the understanding and the prediction of responses under varied concentrations and conditions of the causative and the contributory agents in specific environments.
