Table 4.

RCR distributions for WE1-3 and WH (10,000 Monte Carlo simulations). RCR distributions were calculated considering mass concentrations [µg/m3] as metrics for exposure and BMCh distributions. The data are presented as geometric mean (GM), geometric standard deviation (GSD), minimum and maximum values (min, max) and lower and upper limits of the confidence interval of the mean (95% CI). Note: n.a. = not available.
