SIRboot {EnviroPRA2}

Chemical intake by accidental soil ingestion by bootstrap

Description

Estimates the chemical Intake rate by accidental soil ingestion [mg/Kg*day]

Usage

SIRboot(n, CS, IR, FI, EF, ED, BW, AT)

Arguments

n

Output vector length

CS

Chemical concentrtion in soil [mg/Kg]

IR

Soil Ingestion Rate [mg/Day]

FI

Fraction ingested from contaminated source [-]

EF

Exposure frequency [day/yr]

ED

Exposure duration [yr]

BW

Body weight [Kg]

AT

Averaging time [day] (Note that for No carcinogenic effects AT should be equal to 365*ED)

Value

Chemical intake rate by soil ingestion I [mg/Kg*day] - Object class "numeric"

Examples

# Carcinogenic effects

c <- rnorm( n= 10, mean = 22, sd = 2 )

b <- rnorm( n= 100, mean = 20, sd = 5 )

SIRboot (n = 1000, CS = c, BW = b, IR = 200, ED = 10, EF = 250)
