A structured database containing the parameters and values needed to perform Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA) and cost calculations.

Usage

config_ambre

Format

A list of 3 lists and 5 tibbles :

exposure

Exposure condition : number of repeatings for Monte Carlo simulation, number of exposures per year, volume (L) per exposure event

inflow

Pathogen concentration (number of pathogen per L)

treatment

Database of log reductions for risk management measures

processes

General values for the log reductions

schemes

Risk management process (sequence of measures) assessed

barrier_path

Specific values for log reductions based on the assessed route of exposure

barrier_specific

Specific values for log reductions based on the assessed measure

barrier_decay

Specific values for log reductions for the natural die off measure

doseresponse

Parameters for dose response model (https://qmrawiki.org/framework/dose-response/highest-quality-models-and-parameters)

path

Details on pathways of exposure

description

Description of pathways of exposure

frequency

Frequency values of pathways of exposure

volume

Volume values of pathways of exposure

crop

Description of crop

health

Parameters for risk characterization

economic
