(A) The 90% CIs for the lowest carcinogenic BMD₁₀s were plotted against the CIs for the lowest MN BMD₀₅s for the 48 chemicals considered. The CIs that cross the inner dashed frame have infinite upper bounds in that direction. According to Table 1, CPS, LAS, MBR, PHE, RSC, TAC and TEO had positive results for MN and negative for carcinogenicity while DBCP, SEL and TCE were negative in the MN test and positive for carcinogenicity. With our methodology, all compounds do not deviate from the general correlation patterns. (B) Red BMD intervals relate to NTP studies and black (dashed) BMD intervals to studies obtained from the literature (CPD or PubMed). See Table 3 for the underlying data.
