Abstract
Probit analysis is used in the environmental toxicology field as a procedure to study the dosage response relation in a population of biological organisms, where randomly chosen population members are exposed to various levels of applied stimulus and quantal response is assessed as either dead or alive. In some instances more than one organ or physiological system is affected by the stimulus leading to tests of so-called main effects and side effects.
