Which of the following correctly describes infectious dose-50 (ID50)?ANSWERThe more infectious the pathogen is, the higher the ID50.The lethality of an infectious agent is usually expressed as mortality rate, rather than as ID50.The more infectious the pathogen is, the lower the ID50.ID50 describes the amount of toxin needed to kill 50 percent of affected hosts that are not treated.

The rate at which a certain drug is eliminated by the body follows first-order kinetics, with a half life of 57 minutes.Suppose in a particular patient the concentration of this drug in the bloodstream immediately after injection is 1.9/μgmL. What will the concentration be 228 minutes later?Round your answer to 2 significant digits.μgmL
