Host Acceptance Tests

Host Acceptance Tests is a methodological framework within the domain of host specificity testing that systematically evaluates the capacity of a biological agent to establish successful interactions with non-target host species under controlled conditions, thereby differentiating it from other specificity assessments by focusing on initial infection or colonization success rather than long-term developmental or reproductive outcomes.
