Dose-response assessment combined incidence

Risk characterization is lire process of estimating llie incidence of a health effect under the various conditions of human or animal exposure described in lire exposure assessment. It is performed by combining the exposure (see Cliapter 12) and dose response (see Cluipter 11) assessments. The summary effects of the uncertainties in lire preceding steps should also be described in lliis step. 

Risk characterization is tlie process of estimating tlie incidence of a healtli effect under tlie various conditions of human or animal exposure as described in the exposure assessment. It evolves from both dose exposure assessment and toxicity response assessment. The data are then combined to obtain qualitative and quantitative expression of risk.
