Table A.2.

Exposure models predicting the 95th percentile; in case no model could be derived the 95th percentile was calculated (normal scenario/dense scenario/with rain trousers); exposure is given in µg/person (BfR, 2020)

Rain suit and protective coverall are only applicable to exposure in dense foliage. In that case, either ‘dense with rain suit’ or ‘dense with protective coverall’ may be selected.
