LD50


lethal dose, 50%. refers to the dosage of a given drug required to kill 50% of a test population. the ld50 is usually measured in units of m-ss of drug per units of body m-ss; for example, mg/kg. this type of measurement is used to help ensure that the size of the specimen has no effect on the dosage measurement, as a large specimen can generally take a larger dose of a toxin without fatal effects. the measure is often known colloquially as the “semilethal dose;” while it may not always be lethal to a given subject, it will be lethal around half the time.
the ld50 for nicotine in rats is around 50 mg/kg, but it is only 3 mg/kg in mice. what’s the ld50 for humans, you ask? well, if you’re willing to partic-p-te in the experiment to find out, go buy some cigarettes and knock yourself out (literally).
sometimes used to describe the percentage of a woman’s brain that is missing. the root of this comes from the abbreviation ld50 or lethal dose required to kill half of a population. in this case the ld stands for lacking discernment. depending on the amount of brain missing, the number 50 can be subst-tuted with any percentage greater than 50. can be used in casual bar conversations so that no attention is drawn by the woman of topic.
