sumformlen

Danish to English Science Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
sentence usage: Anvendelse af sumformlen for kumulativ risikovurdering ....giver følgende resultat: 5/12,14 + 5/55,98 + 5/202,02 = 0,53 (< 1)


I don't think sumformlen in this context is Molecular formula, as it might be in other contexts.

Perhaps simply "formula" would be sufficient.

Discussion

Charlesp (asker) Jan 19, 2011:
Good point. .
andres-larsen Jan 19, 2011:
sounds more like an Excel-type dynamic sum formula used for calculating cumulative risk assessment
Christopher Schröder Jan 18, 2011:
The rest of the sentence, surrounding sentences and general topic of the text might at least allow an educated guess as to whether this is molecular formula after all or some kind of sum formula adding together multiple exposures or something else again
Charlesp (asker) Jan 18, 2011:
If I had... but I dont.
Christopher Schröder Jan 18, 2011:
Can you give more context?

Note from asker:
Thanks; looks good. It looks simple, the term - but sometimes the precise terminology to use is difficult to find (even if one knows it). This response looks exactly right, as it jogs my memory. (The assignment of a confidence level one is way way too low.)
