When Show the results is selected, SADA will prompt the user to select the species and exposure assumptions:

Select the species and exposure type using the drop down combo boxes. The exposure types are SSL, Female, Male, or Juvenile. Choosing SSL will use parameter values from EPA’s draft Eco-SSL guidance (EPA 2000), which represents data from males and females combined. Choosing Female or Male will restrict the parameter values to those for that gender. SADA does not currently provide parameter values for juveniles, but custom values can be entered via Set Terrestrial Exposure Parameters.

Select the exposure pathway(s) and then press OK. SADA will now present the contoured dose results.
