Maximum residue levels for chitosan, fat distillation residues, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate
- Pesticide MRLs
Summary
The EU has decided that no maximum residue levels (MRLs) are required in relation to use of the basic substance chitosan, and the low-risk substances fat distillation residues, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate.
EU decides chitosan, fat distillation residues, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate require no MRLs
Commission Regulation (EU) 2024/2612 of 7 October 2024 amending Annexes II, III and IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for chitosan, clopyralid, difenoconazole, fat distillation residues, flonicamid, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate in or on certain products
Update
The EU has decided that no maximum residue levels (MRLs) are required in relation to use of the basic substance chitosan, and the low-risk substances fat distillation residues, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate.
Impacted Products
All products
What is changing?
The EU has decided that no MRLs are required in relation to the use of the basic substance chitosan, and the low-risk substances fat distillation residues, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate.
Why?
Since the conditions of use of chitosan, fat distillation residues, hydrolysed proteins, and lavandulyl senecioate are not expected to leave residues in food or feed commodities, the European Commission has decided no MRLs are required. The MRLs for these substances were previously set at the default value of 0.01 mg/kg.
Timeline
The MRLs for these substances will be removed from 28 October 2024.
Background
MRLs are set in accordance with the rules set out in Regulation 396/2005. For information on current MRLs for other substances, please consult the EU Pesticide Residues database.
