食品伙伴网讯  据欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，12月5日欧盟食品安全局就修订马铃薯中戊菌隆（pencycuron）的最大残留限量发布了意见。

    据了解，拜耳作物公司向英国提交申请，请求修订马铃薯中戊菌隆（pencycuron）的最大残留限量，随后英国向欧盟提交了评估报告。

    经过相关审查，欧盟食品安全局认为英国提出修订马铃薯中戊菌隆（pencycuron）最大残留限量的依据不充分。

    部分原文报道如下：

    In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation （EC） No 396/2005, the United Kingdom, hereafter referred to as the evaluating Member State （EMS）， received an application from Bayer CropScience Ltd to modify the existing MRL for the active substance pencycuron in potatoes. In order to accommodate for the intended use of pencycuron the United Kingdom proposed to raise the existing MRL in potatoes from 0.1 mg/kg to 0.2 mg/kg. The United Kingdom drafted an evaluation report in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation （EC） No 396/2005, which was submitted to the European Commission and forwarded to EFSA on 29 February 2009.

    EFSA bases its assessment on the evaluation report, the Draft Assessment Report （DAR） and the Additional Reports prepared under Council Directive 91/414/EEC, the Commission Review Report on pencycuron and the conclusion on the peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance pencycuron.

    The toxicological profile of pencycuron was assessed in the framework of the peer review under Directive 91/414/EEC and the data were sufficient to derive an ADI of 0.2 mg/kg bw per day. No ARfD was deemed necessary. The toxicological reference value established for the parent compound is applicable for risk assessment purpose to the metabolite pencycuron-PB-amine, which was included in the residue definition for risk assessment of rotational crops.
