... chemical-specific adjustment factors (CSAFs) were developed to replace default assessment factors to address uncertainties in inter- and intraspecies extrapolation in human health risk assessments. CSAFs may consider both toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic properties. These factors can be derived for a single agent or chemical, for a class of chemicals with shared chemical or toxicological properties, and for a group of chemicals that share a mode or mechanism of action or toxicokinetic characteristics. 2, record 1, English, - chemical%2Dspecific%20adjustment%20factor
