Sankey plot showing relative contributions to exposure route (A) ADD and (B) CA LADD. Cumulative ADD and CA LADD are 1.35x10-1 mg/kg-day and 3.93x10-4 mg/kg-day, respectively. Medians were assessed due to the lognormality of data. Contribution plots incorporate each exposure route included in the cumulative analysis of scenario 1, population level. Exposure route categories are simply for visualization and do not necessarily align with Codex Alimentarius plant categories. See S Tables 23 and 25 for values and exact frequencies.

Tree map showing relative contributions to exposure route (A) HI and (B) CA IELCR. HI and CA IELCR are 2.38 and 6.53x10-4, respectively. Medians were assessed due to the lognormality of data. Contribution plots incorporate each exposure route included in the cumulative analysis of scenario 1, population level. Exposure route categories are simply for visualization and do not necessarily align with Codex Alimentarius plant categories. See S Tables 24 and 27 for values and exact frequencies.

Sankey plot showing relatively contributions to (A) LADD and (B) IELCR. Cumulative LADD is 1.30x10-4 mg/kg-day and IELCR is 1.30x10-4. Medians were assessed due to the lognormality of data. Contribution plots incorporate each exposure route included in the cumulative analysis of scenario 1, population level. Exposure route categories are simply for visualization and do not necessarily align with Codex Alimentarius plant categories. See S Table 26 and 28 for values and exact frequencies.
