Single value dietary exposures settings¶
Selection settings¶
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
Risk type
|
The type of exposure considered in the assessment; acute (short term) or chronic (long-term). |
Dietary exposure calculation tier
|
A tier is a pre-specified set of model configurations. By selecting a model tier, MCRA automatically sets all model settings in this module according to this tier. Note that currently tier setting may need to be performed separately in sub-modules. Use the Custom tier when you want to manually set each model setting. |
Calculation settings¶
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
Single value dietary exposure calculation method
|
Method for computing single value dietary exposures. |
Apply processing factors
|
Specified in table ProcessingFactor. If checked, processing factors are applied. Concentrations in the consumed food may be different from concentrations in the modelled food in monitoring programs (typically raw food) due to processing, such as peeling, washing, cooking etc. If unchecked, no processing information is used. This is in most (though not all) cases a worst-case assumption |
Use occurrence frequencies
|
Account for occurrence frequencies for combinations of food and substance in the exposure calculations. |
