Specifies all module settings should be set according to a pre-defined tier or using custom settings. |
Multiple substances analysis
|
Boolean |
Specifies whether the assessment involves multiple substances. |
Allow conversion using processing info
|
Boolean |
Try to find the code in the processing table. When a match is found, then also a food translation record is searched for to also include information on weight reduction/increase (translation proportion). Warning: the processing step is deprecated and is currently only maintained for backwards compatibility reasons. |
Allow conversion using food translations
|
Boolean |
Try to find food translations for the current food (i.e. the ingredients of a composite food). This may result in one or more food codes for ingredients, and the iterative algorithm will proceed with each of the ingredient food codes in turn. |
Total diet study concentration data
|
Boolean |
Specifies whether exposure is based on sampling data from total diet studies. |
Allow conversion using food extrapolations
|
Boolean |
Try to find read across codes. If unchecked, read across table is ignored, default is ‘Use read across info’. E.g. for pineapple no measurements are found but by specifying that pineapple is converted to FruitMix (with a default proportion of 100%), the TDS sample concentration value of FruitMix will be used for pineapple (as-eaten or as ingredient). |
Boolean |
Try to find subtype codes, e.g. ‘xxx$*’ in the market shares table. | |
Allow market shares not summing to 100%
|
Boolean |
Specify whether to rescale market share percentages that do not sum to 100%. If checked, then foods with marketshares not summing to 100% are allowed. If not, then these foods are ignored in the analysis. |
Allow conversion to supertypes
|
Boolean |
Try to find supertypes, e.g. ‘xxx$yyy’ is converted to ‘xxx’. If checked, allows for linkage of consumed foods coded at a lower hierarchical level to foods with measured concentrations at a higher hierarchical level e.g. consumed is Apple (code PF$Apple) –> measured is Pome Fruit (code PF). Note: food codes are split on ‘$’. Measurements of substances on food are available at a less detailed food coding level than consumption data. |
Allow conversion using default processing
|
Boolean |
Allow conversion from processed to unprocessed foods. Either by matching to processing types specified as substrings separated using a ‘-’ character or by matching FoodEx2 facet strings (separated by a ‘#’ character) to processing types. |
Conversion is substance independent
|
Boolean |
Conversion of foods is independent of the substance. |
Derive modelled foods from concentration limits
|
Boolean |
Derive modelled foods from concentration limits. |
Include foods with only censored value measurements
|
Boolean |
Specifies whether foods with only censored value measurements are part of the exposure assessment (default yes). |
Include substances with only censored value measurements
|
Boolean |
Specifies whether substances with only censored value measurements are part of the exposure assessment (default yes). |
Include substances without measurements
|
Boolean |
Specifies whether substances without any measurements should be included. |
