LanguaL

The foods in Matvaretabellen are described using a classification system called LanguaL. LanguaL stands for "Langua aLimentaria" or "language of food". This language enables standardized descriptions of foods.

10

Missing value, content not known.

20

Estimated value.

50

Estimated as a naturally occurring zero value, not analysed.

60c

Estimated value. Due to value falling in between the limit of detection and the limit of quantification, the value is estimated to be half of the limit of quantification.
