- Relative number of products made from a resin type exhibiting significant (p < 0.01) EA for a given stress or for any stress.
- Row labeled “overall” gives the number of products exhibiting EA for those products having at least three assays for at least 3 stresses (row labeled “Overall”).
- Row labeled “Total” sums the data for that column.
- n: number of products tested for any stress condition, blank column: no tests made for that particular combination of product and stress, UN: unstressed, MI: microwaved, AU: autoclaved, UV: UVA or UVC stress.
