Daily Manganese Exposure Estimates for Children Aged 6 Months to 5 Years

Seth H. Frisbie's dataset provides daily exposure estimates for manganese (Mn) based on labeled content in products for children. The data covers ages from 6 months to 5 years and includes only samples with labeled Mn content. It was last updated on March 18, 2026, and is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Modeling pediatric manganese intake based on labeled supplement content.
• Comparing labeled manganese concentrations across different age groups.
• Assessing compliance with dietary reference intakes for manganese in children.

Strengths

• Focuses on a specific age range (6 months to 5 years).
• Provides separate estimates for each age covered by product labels.
• Data is openly licensed (CC-BY-4.0).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small (9.5 KB), indicating limited scope.
