Several factors can influence toxicological risk, including:
- Dose: The amount of a substance that an individual is exposed to. - Duration of Exposure: The length of time an individual is exposed to the substance. - Frequency of Exposure: How often the exposure occurs. - Route of Exposure: How the substance enters the body (e.g., inhalation, ingestion, dermal contact). - Individual Susceptibility: Variation in sensitivity among individuals due to genetic factors, age, health status, etc.
