+ <p>This is a basic calculation of a contaminant concentration in bulk soil
+based on complete, instantaneous mixing. If an interval is given, an
+attempt is made at calculating a long term maximum concentration using
+the concepts layed out for example in the PPR panel opinion (EFSA 2012).</p>

+opinion cited below (PPR panel 2012), only temperature correction using the
