Established Maximum Residue Limit: Bicyclopyrone

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for bicyclopyrone notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1146 (dated 13 November 2017) was adopted 31 January 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 Commodity2.0                  Meat by-products of cattle, goats, horses and sheep20.5                  Meat by-products of hogs30.15                Barley bran0.07                Barley, wheat bran0.04               Wheat1 ppm = parts per million2 The MRL is proposed to replace the currently established 1.5 ppm MRL.3 The MRL is proposed to replace the currently established 0.2 ppm MRL.
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).
