  • In analysis 2, the adjusted rate of conception was 12.5 (95% CI 8.9 to 17.6) vs 12.9 (95% CI 9.9 to 16.9) per 1000 years of mycophenolate exposure time in the REMS versus MG periods. (bmj.com)
  • Flood Exposure Source, 1000 W Hg(Xe), 6 x 6 in. (newport.com)
  • The 92531 Flood Exposure Source is a 1000 Watt source for the deep UV (220 - 260 nm) spectral range. (newport.com)
  • For example, higher levels of PAHs in urine after a shift shows that exposures happened during the workday. (cdc.gov)
  • Plausible physiologic and biologic mechanisms: For example, positing that a major change in organ formation was due to late-trimester pesticide exposure would not be plausible because organogenesis would have been completed before the exposures. (medscape.com)
  • However, new parameters are considered in the exposure estimation PEQ (Predicted Exposure Quantity) such as the application period regarding the flowering stage of the intended crop. (industryintel.com)
  • Another change in exposure estimation compared with the 2013 version is the consideration of separated estimations for exposures through nectar and pollen, and separated calculations for above-soil contamination (due to direct spray on the plants) and potential exposure due to translocation of soil contamination to the plant.

  • Refined coal tar sealant worker exposure to PAHs is demonstrated by the results of personal breathing zone, skin wipe, and urinary samples. (cdc.gov)
  • Consumer exposure is estimated for the different uptake paths (dermal, inhalative, oral), for the relevant exposure situation (e.g. use of the biocide or contact with treated objects) and the exposed person groups (adults, children). (bund.de)
  • The calculation program and guideline are aimed at evaluation authorities and applicants who estimate consumer exposure through the transfer of biocidal product residues to foods in private households. (bund.de)
  • has developed a web application that now allows estimating livestock exposure and the resulting consumer exposure even more specifically and user friendly. (bund.de)
