Table 7: Acute exposure
Acute exposure to sum of T-2 and HT-2 from unprocessed oat grains, unprocessed wheat grains, and unprocessed barley grains based on DNSYIC and NDNS years 1-11 consumption data and occurrence data collected from the FSA call for evidence (µg/kg bw/day; LB-UB).

*Estimates have been rounded to 2 significant figures.
**Unprocessed oat grains – oat grains without processing (raw primary commodity (RPC)).
LB - Lower bound: values below the limit of quantification (LOQ) are treated as zero; UB - Upper bound: values below the LOQ are treated as at the LOQ.
** If single value is shown, it indicates that the exposures are based on detected values above the LOQ.
