Hello, I am writing you today to tell you about my
experience with the Ieubk model. At first I was extremely worried because I had
no idea how to even work the model or wear I could get information from. I stayed
in contact with my partner and he has helped me out extremely with the process.
I understand that this is a very important test so I am going to write about
each part of the experience. The first thing I had to choose when I signed into
the model was if I wanted the model to run in beginner or advanced I obviously
chose beginner because I had no idea what i was really doing. The next window that pops up after I press
next is the soil tab. The first thing it
wants you to do is enter the soil lead concentration. Then the model usually
calculates the mean of the concentration of the soil and lead concentration. Another
thing that you need to add is total dust plus soil intake that Is a very big
factor in determining lead concentration. After you are done figuring out the
lead in soil and dust concentration, the next tab is outdoor air quality. Two big
factors that you have to calculate is the time spent outdoors, the ventilation rate, and the percentage of
lung absorption these play huge factors because lead can be dissolved into your
lungs very easily. The next step in the process is your dietary values. I feel like
this is the most important part of the model. I think this because of my
research most deaths from lead poisonings come from young kids ingesting small
organisms and toys which are filled with heavy traces of lead. So when you are
ingesting things with lead there are higher chances of you becoming poisoned. The
dietary intake table even gets as specific to calculate the lead intake based
on specific ages from ages 1-7. This model is so intricate it even wants you to
put in the lead concentration for specific foods. These specific foods are,
home grown fruits, home grown vegetables, fish from fishing. This model is
tended to be take very seriously. The next tab in the model is water
consumption. This one is also very important your water has to be safe. This tab
shows everything from the lead concentration in flushing toilets all the way to
lead concentration in water fountains. The final slide on the model has to do
with the median concentration. The last slide is basically a summary of all of my
results. Then you click proceed and it calculates all of the possibilities of
the amounts of lead in the specific ae groups. I am going to give you all of the links
that I have used to run my tests. From. I learn from example. It is easier for
me to retain information if I am doing it myself. If I have learned everything
from about understanding this model from doing it.
