Risk and analytical results

hazardObserved
For the pesticides Acetamiprid, Azoxystrobin, Cypermethrin, Flutriafol, Tebuconazole and Trifloxystrobin, according to the available toxicological and consumption data, the exposure of both population groups, adults and children, do not exceed the toxicological reference values (ARfD/ADI). For the pesticide L-Cyhalothrin, the exposure for the children, exceeds the toxicological reference values (ARfD/ADI). Therefore, the analyzed sample cannot be considered safe for consumption. Furthermore, it is noted that the pesticide Flutriafol is not approved for use in the EU and the determined concentrations of the pesticides Acetamiprid, L-Cyhalothrin, Tebuconaole and Trifloxystrobin are much higher than the maximum permitted levels provided for by legislation (%MRL).
