Exposure biomarker conversions from data

In table Exposure biomarker conversions, conversion factors are specified to convert measured biomarkers to the biomarkers of interest. Conversion factors may be dependent on individual properties like age and gender. Specify in table Exposure biomarker conversion subgroups age and/or gender specific conversion factors.

For age, specify the lower bound of the age interval (in years) of the exposure biomarker conversion subgroup. Individuals belong to a subgroup when the age of the individual is equal or greater than the specified lower bound and smaller than the specified lower age of the next subgroup.

Check option Use exposure biomarker conversion factors subgroup to use age and/or gender specific conversion factors in your assessment.

Column VariabilityDistributionType in table Exposure biomarker conversions is used to specify the variability distribution to sample from. When the column is left empty, the conversion factor itself is used. Currently, four distributions are available.
