Tech/Engineering - Environment & Ecology | | French term or phrase: de manière enveloppe | This is from a nuclear company's EHS manual/ checklist for managers, and the calculation of the population's exposure levels.
Par exemple, les doses absorbées par les populations sont calculées à partir de régimes alimentaires types qui sont différents selon les tranches d’âge. Ainsi, l’eau des puits consommée, l’eau d’arrosage, les transferts racinaires et foliaires pour les légumes et les fruits, les poissons, les œufs,… sont pris en compte. Les doses inhalées et ingérées ainsi reconstituées de manière enveloppe, sont comparées à des références toxicologiques et le risque est exprimé par rapport à des valeurs repères.

47 mins confidence:   (the toxins) can be detected/manifest themselves
Explanation:
I think the expression means that the toxins that are re-ingested via the means described betray their presence and can be measured against a benchmark
