uncertainty factors

How are Uncertainty Factors Applied?

During the process of dose-response assessment, toxicologists use UFs to adjust the No-Observed-Adverse-Effect Level (NOAEL) or other points of departure to establish a reference dose (RfD) or reference concentration (RfC). These adjusted values serve as guidance for safe exposure levels.
