Based on assumption, the average body
weight of three different age groups referred as minimum, most likely and maximum body weight was fit into pert
distribution. Three scenarios based on national fish consumption (average consumption, 2 and 4 times of average
consumption) were analyzed. First order Monte Carlo simulations were performed considering 50000 iterations.
Estimated formaldehyde intake (minimum, mean, maximum and SD) was determined per fish category and different
scenarios separately. Calculations were performed using the software package @Risk program version 6.0 (Palisade
Corporation, US). Table 1 shows the general summary of the data used in @Risk.
