EC50: Measurement, Calculation of EC50 & Relation to the Hill Equation

Half maximal effective concentration (EC50) is a measure of the concentration of a drug, antibody or toxicant which induces a biological response halfway between the baseline and maximum after a specified exposure time. More simply, EC50 can be defined as the concentration required to obtain a 50% effect and may be also written as 50. It is commonly used…
