Hazard characterisations data formats

Hazard characterisations

Hazard characterisations provide reference threshold values associated with the hazard of interest. Examples are ADI, ARfD, BMD, NOAEL.

Hazard characterisations

Hazard characterisations are specified for combinations of hazard characterisation type, effect, substance, population type, target level, and exposure route (for external) or target organ (for internal).

Name Type Description Aliases Required

idHazardCharacterisation

AlphaNumeric(50)

Id of the hazard characterisation.

id, idHazardCharacterisation

Yes

idEffect

AlphaNumeric(50)

Code of the (critical) effect linked to this hazard characterisation.

idEffect, EffectId, Effect

No

idSubstance

AlphaNumeric(50)

The code of the substance.

idSubstance

Yes

idPopulationType

AlphaNumeric(50)

The code of the population type for which this reference value is defined. If not specified, PS06A, Consumers is assumed.

idPopulationType

No

TargetLevel

TargetLevelType

The target level. I.e., internal or external. If omitted, external is assumed

TargetLevel

No

ExposureRoute

ExposureRouteTypes

The exposure route (only applicable if target level is external). If not specified, Dietary is assumed.

ExposureRoute

No

TargetOrgan

AlphaNumeric(50)

The target organ (should be specified when target level is internal).

No

IsCriticalEffect

Boolean

Specifies whether this value is the value associated with the critical effect. If omitted, No is assumed

IsCriticalEffect

No

ExposureType

ExposureTypes

The exposure type associated with the hazard characterisation (i.e., chronic or acute).

ExposureType

Yes

HazardCharacterisationType

HazardCharacterisationTypes

The type of the hazard characterisation (e.g., ARfD, ADI, NOAEL, BMD).

HazardCharacterisationType

Yes

Qualifier

QualifierType

Qualifier of the hazard characterisation value, e.g. equal-to (=) or smaller-than (<). If omitted, = is assumed.

QualifierType

No

Value

Numeric

Reference value that characterises the hazard.

Yes

DoseUnit

DoseUnits

Unit of the hazard characterisation value.

DoseUnit, Unit

Yes

idPointOfDeparture

AlphaNumeric(50)

The code of the point of departure from which this hazard characterisation was derived.

idHazardDose, idPod

No

CombinedAssessmentFactor

Numeric

Combined assessment factor (includes, e.g., safety factor, but also other extrapolation factors that may be used to derive the hazard characterisation from the underlying PoD).

CombinedAssessmentFactor

No
