---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | campylobacter | campylobacter infection | ingestion | ? | beta poisson approximation | None | 0.024 | 0.011 | |
2 | rotavirus | rotavirus infection | ingestion | ? | exact beta poisson | None | 0.167 | 0.191 | |

4 | cryptosporidium | cryptosporisium infection | ingestion | ? | exact beta poisson | None | 0.115 | 0.176 | |
5 | giardia | giardia infection | ingestion | ? | exponential | None | 0.0199 | 0 | |
6 | E.coli | E. coli infection | ingestion | ? | exact beta poisson | None | 0.157 | 9.16 | E. coli O157:H7 strain |

In these equations, Param1 and Param2 are in Threshold and ERF columns, respectively.
- Beta Poisson approximation: 1-(1+Dose/Param2)^-Param1
- Exact beta Poisson: 1-exp(-(Param1/(Param1+Param2))*Dose)
- Exponential: 1-exp(-Param1*Dose)
