Intra species factors

Intra-species factors specify how to convert a hazard characterisation from the average to a sensitive human individual.

Intra species factors as data

In the simplest approach, intra-species factors are fixed factors. In a higher tier, lower and upper values for the intra-species factor are used to derive a variability distribution (log-normal around 1) and an uncertainty distribution for the geometric standard deviation related to human variability in sensitivity.
