UL1–3 yr = estimated range of the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for 1–3 year old children [1], expressed per 100 kcal, derived using energy intakes by 1 and 3 year old children from the Food and Nutrient Intakes by Children Surveys: 1994–96, 1998 [24]. RMC = range of recommended maximum manganese concentrations for infant formulas [5, 6]. EM = evaporated milks, MF = cow milk-based infant formulas, SF = soy-based infant formulas, RB = rice beverages, SB = soy beverages, C = concentrated liquid, P = powder, RTU = ready-to-use liquid, F = flavoured liquid, U = unflavoured liquid.
