Risk and Safety Analysis Carcinogens and Genotoxicity Assessment Risk Perception and Management

Abstract

Dictionaries define risk as the chance or probability of injury, damage, or loss (e.g., Webster's, 1970). Even though many other professions have long since adopted probabilistic frameworks using the Monte Carlo method pioneered during World War II, most human health risk assessments for exposures to carcinogenic compounds still use
