Non-chemical Stressor Properties

On the Non-chemical Stressor Properties form, enter the stressor properties tracked at your facility. For example, you might assign the property "particle size distribution" to biological stressors. For each non-chemical stressor property, equivalent entries in different languages can be defined. For example, a "Temperature" property value in Italian, "Temperatura", could be specified. When localization has been implemented, the Culture setting assigned to a user determines which value is displayed in field lists on Essential forms. Enter the corresponding non-chemical stressor properties and associate each one with the appropriate language in the Language Dependent Non-chemicial Stressor Properties section.

Some non-chemical stressor types will not have properties. For example, the stressor type "Ergonomic" will have limits, but may not have properties. When applicable, assign stressor properties to stressor types on the Stressor Types form.

Note:  Properties for chemical stressors are entered in the Physical Properties subsection of the Material Composition and Properties section on the Material form.
