abstract：:Toxicokinetics describe the time course of xenobiotics in an exposed organism. The steady state concentration of the xenobiotic is a characteristic of frequent concern, often summarized in terms of bioaccumulation factors (BAFs). Two experimental protocols are commonly used when estimating BAFs: a continuous exposure ...
