Figure 13: Main <strong>food</strong> groups contributing (%) to the chronic dietary exposure to Cr(III) for the age<br />
class ‘Adults’. Data are presented by individual dietary surveys across Europe using LB estimations.<br />

6.1.2.5. ‘Elderly’ and ‘Very elderly’<br />
A total of seven and six dietary surveys across Europe were available for the age classes ‘Elderly’ and<br />
‘Very elderly’, respectively. For the ‘Elderly’ population the mean dietary exposure to Cr(III) ranged<br />
between 0.6 µg/kg b.w. per day and 1.4 µg/kg b.w. per day (minimum LB and maximum UB). The<br />
95 th percentile dietary exposure ranged from 1.1 μg/kg b.w. per day (minimum LB) to<br />
2.0 μg/kg b.w. per day (maximum UB). Very similar values were obtained for the ‘Very elderly’<br />
population. Mean dietary exposure varied between 0.7 µg/kg b.w. per day and 1.5 µg/kg b.w. per day<br />
(minimum LB and maximum UB), while the 95 th percentile dietary exposure ranged between<br />
1.2 µg/kg b.w. per day (minimum LB) and 2.3 μg/kg b.w. per day (maximum UB).<br />
