N: number of surveys.

The acute dietary exposure refers to the highest percentile that is considered statistically robust for a given dietary survey, age class and food, considering that a minimum of 12, 30, 61 and 181 observations are, respectively, required to derive 75th, 90th, 95th and 97.5th percentile estimates (EFSA, 2011a). Estimates with less than 12 observations were not included in this table.
