aNumber of mice in which tumor formed/total number of mice inoculated.
bSince not all mice inoculated with the lowest dose (1x102) showed the negative (non-tumor bearing) results, it was assumed that the tumor incidence of mice at an even lower dose step (a dummy set of data) would have been 0% for the Spearman-Kärber method to be applicable.
cSince not all mice inoculated with the highest dose (1x104) formed tumors, it was assumed that the tumor incidence of mice at an even higher dose step (a dummy set of data) would have been 100% for the Spearman-Kärber method to be applicable.
