BMI exposure groups were based on standard clinical definitions: normal-weight BMI (18.5 24.9 kg/m), overweight (25.0 29.9 kg/m), and obese (≥30.0 kg/m).
The diagnosis of MM was based on standard criteria [20].
The study population was grouped into age categories: 3 5 years, 6 17 years, 18 49 years, and 50 80 years, chosen based on standard clinical groupings according to probable influenza exposure/risk environments.
Hit selection was based on "standard scores".
Bacteria identification was based on standard methods.
Amino acid concentrations were based on standard casein preparation.
Analytes were detected and quantified based on standard curves.
Costs were assigned to HRU based on standard algorithms.
The caller will receive charges based on standard rates.
The ecotoxicity criteria were based on standards or criteria for intermittent exposures (MAC-EQS or PNECintermittent - based on acute ecotoxicity data) when they were available; otherwise, criteria for chronic exposure (AA-EQS, PNEC – based on chronic ecotoxicity data) are used.
