What Does CPF Stand For?
CPF stands for Cancer Potency Factor
The Cancer Potency Factor (CPF) is a quantitative measure used in toxicology and pharmacology to evaluate the potential carcinogenic effects of substances. It is calculated based on various parameters, including the dose-response relationship and the duration of exposure to a carcinogen. CPF assists researchers and regulatory agencies in assessing the risk of cancer associated with specific chemicals, thereby aiding in risk management and public health decision-making.
