Summary of the quality screening results for all in vivo mammalian studies against 26 criteria. Prioritized studies should be assigned a score of > 0 against all criteria. In this study, however, due to lack of data, a subset of criteria has been identified as necessary for results to potentially be considered as fit-for-purpose towards helping to inform a dose–response assessment (‘red criteria’); these criteria are displayed in red and indicated by an asterisk (*), with all other screening criteria shown in green. Additional details from the Tier 1 evaluation are reported in the supplemental information (reference figure/tables) and in Gouin et al., [42]
