Abstract
For the assessment of combined effects of toxicants mainly two competing concepts, concentration addition and response multiplication (independent action), are available. Concentration addition bears most experimental evidence and has therefore been recommended as a leading principle to calculate mixture toxicity. In this paper we compare the concepts, finding that concentration addition gives a reasonable worst case estimation in ecotoxicology even for substances with independent joint action.
