High exposure food substance combinations settings

Calculation settings

Table 179 Calculation settings for module High exposure food-substance combinations.
Name Type Description
Exposure type
ExposureType The type of exposure considered in the assessment; acute (short term) or chronic (long-term).
Compute cumulative exposures

Boolean

Specifies whether the assessment involves multiple substances and results should be cumulated over all substances.
Percentage defining the exposure percentile of interest per food-as-eaten/food-as-measured/substance combination

Numeric

Percentage defining the exposure percentile of interest per food-as-eaten/food-as-measured/substance combination.
Include risk drivers to include minimally a percentage

Numeric

The selection criterion for the risk drivers. The cumulative contribution percentage of the selected risk drivers will be this percentage.
Censored value replacement: factor x LOR

Numeric

A constant between 0 and 1. A value 0 can be used for an optimistic screening (LOR not used). Note that a factor 0.5 (pessimistic) may result in many and often high contributions from food-substance combinations with only censored values.
Report consumptions and exposures per individual instead of per kg body weight

Boolean

Specifies whether body weights should be ignored and consumptions and exposures should be expressed per individual. Otherwise, the consumptions and exposures are per kg body weight.
