Maximum residue levels for methyl nonyl ketone
- Food safety
- Pesticide MRLs
Summary
The European Commission has set the maximum residue levels (MRLs) for methyl nonyl ketone to the limit of determination of 0.01 mg/kg on all products. (The LOD is the lowest level that can be detected using the most modern and reliable analytical methods.)
EU sets MRLs for methyl nonyl ketone to the LOD of 0.01 mg/kg on all products
Commission Regulation (EU) 2024/352 of 22 January 2024 amending Annexes II and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for (Z)-13-hexadecen-11-yn-1-yl acetate, (Z,Z,Z,Z)-7,13,16,19-docosatetraen-1-yl isobutyrate, acrinathrin, azimsulfuron, famoxadone, prochloraz and sodium hypochlorite in or on certain products
Update
The European Commission has set the maximum residue levels (MRLs) for methyl nonyl ketone to the limit of determination of 0.01 mg/kg on all products. (The LOD is the lowest level that can be detected using the most modern and reliable analytical methods.)
What is changing?
The European Commission has set the MRLs for methyl nonyl ketone to the LOD of 0.01 mg/kg on all products.
Why?
Since 26 May 2017, methyl nonyl ketone is no longer permitted for use in the EU. The existing MRLs for this substance have therefore been set to the LOD.
Timeline
The new MRLs will apply from 12 August 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.
