Comparison of the MCR values of three portions of mixtures in Cases 1 and 2. No statistical differences were found between the two cases for the three portions of samples in Wilcoxon test. The three portions of mixtures were chosen on the basis of HI (mixtures with HI values falling into 49–51st, 94–96th, and 98–100th centile ranges respectively). Case 1 assumes that NDs have concentrations of 0 and Case 2 assumes that NDs have concentrations of DL/20.5. Min: minimum; Max: maximum.
