Abstract
- Abstract In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Syngenta Agro GmbH submitted a request to the competent national authority in Germany to modify the existing maximum residue levels (MRL) for the active substance fludioxonil in blueberries, gooseberries, currants and cranberries. The data submitted in support of the intended northern Europe (NEU) outdoor and EU indoor use were found sufficient to derive MRL proposals of 4 mg/kg for cranberries, gooseberries, currants and blueberries. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of fludioxonil in the plant matrix under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the longāterm intake of residues resulting from the use of fludioxonil according to the reported agricultural practice is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
