Table 5 Calculation of the cumulative exposure index and time-weighted average concentration of CS2

From: Carbon disulfide exposure estimate and prevalence of chronic diseases after carbon disulfide poisoning-related occupational diseases

• cumulative exposure index (CEI) = Σ (working years x reference concentration x weight)

 

• time weighted average CS2 concentration = Σ (the hours in the workday x reference concentration x weight) / the hours in the workday of exposure to CS2
