Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-004249
A set of conditions and assumptions describing how a substance is manufactured, used, or disposed of, and how individuals or the environment may be exposed to it. This includes information on the amounts used, the duration and frequency of exposure, and the populations potentially affected. It is used in risk assessment to estimate potential exposures.
