Description
The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for afidopyropen notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1203 (dated 3 September 2018) was adopted 28 November 2018. The proposed MRLs were established via entry into the Maximum Residue Limits Database and are provided directly below:MRL (ppm)1 Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity5.0 Brassica leafy greens (crop subgroup 4-13B)3.0 Leaf petioles vegetables (crop subgroup 22B)2.0 Leafy greens (crop subgroup 4-13A)0.7 Cucurbit vegetables (crop group 9)0.5 Brassica head and stem vegetable (crop group 5-13), dried tomatoes0.4 Citrus oil0.2 Fruiting vegetables (crop group 8-09)0.15 Citrus fruits (revised) (crop group 10)0.08 Cottonseeds (revised) (crop subgroup 20C)0.03 Stone fruits (crop group 12-09)0.02 Pome fruits (crop group 11-09)0.01 Tuberous and corm vegetables (crop subgroup 1C), tree nuts (crop group 14-11), dry soybeans, eggs, fat, meat, and meat by-products of cattle, goats, hogs, horses, poultry and sheep0.001 Milk1 ppm = parts per millionMRLs are established for each commodity included in the listed crop groupings in accordance with the Residue Chemistry Crop Groups webpage (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/consumer-product-safety/pesticides-pest-management/public/protecting-your-health-environment/pesticides-food/residue-chemistry-crop-groups.html) in the Pesticides and Pest Management section of Health Canada's website.
MRLs established in Canada may be found using Health Canada's Maximum Residue Limit Database (http://pr-rp.hc-sc.gc.ca/mrl-lrm/index-eng.php) on the Maximum Residue Limits for Pesticides webpage (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/consumer-product-safety/pesticides-pest-management/public/protecting-your-health-environment/pesticides-food/maximum-residue-limits-pesticides.html). The database allows users to search for pesticides(s) or for food commodity(ies).
