Data consist of 5 mixture, 6 dilutions, three replicates, and 12 common controls; in total 102 onservations.

A data frame with 102 observations on the following 3 variables.
dose
a numeric vector of dose values
pct
a numeric vector denoting the grouping according to the mixtures percentages
rgr
a numeric vector of response values (relative growth rates)
The dataset is analysed in Soerensen et al (2007). The asymmetric Voelund model is appropriate, whereas the symmetric Hewlett model is not.
The dataset is kindly provided by Nina Cedergreen, Department of Agricultural Sciences, Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, Denmark.
