Dermal exposure calculation from overspray for lizards

Body weight (g) Total Surface (cm2) Dermal absorption% Applied rate (kg/ha) Applied rate (mg/cm2) Dermal Doseb (mg/kg bw
Small lizard 1.4 14.582 100 1 0.01 52.08
Medium lizard 11 59.239 100 1 0.01 26.927
Large lizard 100a 265.741 100 1 0.01 13.287

bw: body weight.

a

A body weight of 100 g is outside of the range of adult body weights. It was included only for purpose of comparison with other groups.

b

For the calculation of the dermal dose, the total surface was divided by 2 assuming that only the upper side of the animal is exposed.
