Dust ingestions
Variability distributions specifying the intake/ingestions of dust, specified using a distribution type, a mean and a coefficient of variation (CV). Distributions may be specified for different subgroups of age and sex.
Accepted table names: DustIngestions, DustIngestion.

AgeLower |
Numeric (50) |
Specifies the lower bound of the age interval (in years) of the dust exposure determinant 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 bound of the next subgroup. |
