Hvis eksponeringen via luftvejene ikke er signifikant, og hvis man antager, at 5% af det indtagne cadmium faktisk absorberes, svarer dette til en daglig oral indtagelse af 200-300 ijg cqdmium (1,3).
Where exposure by the inhalation route is not significant and making the assumption that 5% of the cadmium is actually absorbed this corresponds to a daily intake by the oral route of 200 to 300,ug cadmium (1,3).
