This paper investigates the use of Lagrange-gamma multihit dose-response model to perform toxic chemical risk assessment. A biological interpolation of the model in terms of the occurrence of k ''hits'' to cause toxic response and a statistical interpretation in terms of a Lagrange-gamma tolerance density are given. The parameters of the model are obtained by the method of maximum likelihood and are used to estimate a virtual safe dose.
