The General Uniﬁed Threshold model for Survival (GUTS) provides a framework for deriving toxicokinetic−toxicodynamic (TKTD) models, which account for eﬀects of toxicant exposure on survival in time. Starting from the classic assumptions of independent action and concentration addition, we derive equations for the GUTS reduced (GUTS-RED) model corresponding to these mixture toxicity concepts and go on to demonstrate their application. Using experimental binary mixture studies with Enchytraeus crypticus and previously published data for Daphnia magna and Apis mellifera, we assessed the predictive power of the extended GUTS-RED framework for mixture assessment. The  \nextended models accurately predicted the mixture eﬀect. The GUTS parameters on single exposure data, mixture model calibration, and predictive power analyses on mixture exposure data oﬀer novel diagnostic tools to inform on the chemical mode of action, speciﬁcally whether a similar or dissimilar form of damage is caused by mixture components. Finally, observed deviations from model predictions can identify interactions, e.g., synergism or antagonism, between chemicals in the mixture, which are not accounted for by the models. TKTD models, such as GUTS-RED, thus oﬀer a framework to implement new mechanistic knowledge in mixture hazard assessments.  \n■ INTRODUCTION  \nHuman activities release a plethora of chemicals into the environment1 that can lead to eﬀects on nontarget organisms. The environmental risk assessment (ERA) for individual  \nchemicals is established with experimental designs and data  \nrobust analysis  \nmethods, including methods in place.2  \nWhile risk assessment may take a chemical-by-chemical approach, in practice, ecosystems are subject to many inputs from agricultural, industrial, and domestic sources. These sources result in a wide range of mixture exposure scenarios that can aﬀect nontarget organisms.3−5  \nThe dominant approaches to predict mixture eﬀects ignore the time dimension.5 As toxicity is a process in time, so is the action of mixtures.6 Therefore, mixture eﬀect assessment needs diagnostic tools that account for these temporal aspects. To explain and predict the eﬀects of mixtures, toxicokinetic − toxicodynamic models (TKTD models), which simulate the time course of processes leading to toxicity, oﬀer a promising approach.7−9 Previous studies have presented TKTD models to analyze eﬀects of mixtures on survival that have been successfully applied to mixture datasets. 10−17  \nIn the past decade, the development of the General Uniﬁed Threshold model for Survival (GUTS) framework ﬁrmly  \nestablished the concept of damage dynamics, which takes place between the internal concentration and the eﬀect.18, 19 This concept is central to the GUTS framework as it provides an explanation for the time course of mortality, including cases where internal concentration kinetics fail.20,21 Recently, as the broad relevance of damage dynamics became clearer, this conc","cbCaifP7VuPuV4wK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifP7VuPuV4wK","pdf",3824934,1,10,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Model Extension and Application","[{\"question\":\"Why do existing mixture toxicity methods need to account for time?\",\"answer\":\"Because toxicity and the action of mixture components unfold as time-dependent processes.
