Single value dietary exposures settings

Selection settings

Table 147 Selection settings for module Single value dietary exposures.
Name Type Description
Risk type
ExposureType The type of exposure considered in the assessment; acute (short term) or chronic (long-term).
Dietary exposure calculation tier
DietaryIntakeCalculationTier 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

Table 148 Calculation settings for module Single value dietary exposures.
Name Type Description
Single value dietary exposure calculation method
SingleValueDietaryExposuresCalculationMethod Method for computing single value dietary exposures.
Apply processing factors

Boolean

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

Boolean

Account for occurrence frequencies for combinations of food and substance in the exposure calculations.
