Dietary exposures with screening

Dietary exposures with screening are just dietary exposures, but the calculation includes a prior screening step to identify the main risk drivers (food-substance combinations). This allows computations with more substances by suppressing some details for less important food-substance combinations.

Calculation of dietary exposures with screening

Screening results are computed for each combination of source (being a specific combination of food-as-eaten/food-as-measured) and substance by combining simple approximations of the consumption and the concentration distribution.

Inputs used: Consumptions by food as measured Concentration models Active substances Relative potency factors
