  • Title: Physiologically based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modeling in health risk assessment and characterization of hazardous substances.
    Author: Leung HW, Paustenbach DJ.
    Journal: Toxicol Lett; 1995 Sep; 79(1-3):55-65. PubMed ID: 7570674.
    Abstract:
    Recent advances in physiologically based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) modeling have introduced novel approaches for evaluating toxicological problems. Because PBPK models are amenable to extrapolation of tissue dosimetry, they are increasingly being applied to chemical risk assessment. A comprehensive listing of PBPK/PD models for environmental chemicals developed to date is referenced. Salient applications of PBPK/PD modeling to health risk assessments and characterization of hazardous substances are illustrated with examples.
