Abstract
The accuracy of assessed risk from intake of a chemical in the food supply depends to a great extent on the accuracy of the dietary intake data on which the assessment is based. Until recently, international efforts to develop food chemical risk assessment methodology have focused more on toxicological evaluation than on accurate estimation of dietary intake.
