The use of Mixture Toxicity Indices (MTI's) is one of the more attractive approaches for describing and predicting the effects of mixtures of toxicants. For an MTI to apply to all possible mixtures of the compounds in question, it must summarize information from a model describing all possible responses of interest. A method of obtaining MTI's from response surface equations or from tolerance models similar to the toxic units model is presented. Methods of calculating several MTI's with desirable properties from multivariable probit response surfaces are demonstrated.
