欧盟拟修订铜化合物在某些小型水果和浆果中的最大残留限量

 

　　根据欧盟条例（EC）No 396/2005第6章的规定，Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH提交了该修订申请。根据风险评估结果，欧洲食品安全局得出结论，由于预期和现有用途、自然背景水平和监测水平而导致的铜残留物的长期摄入可能对消费者的健康构成风险。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH submitted a request to the competent national authority in Austria to modify the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the active substance copper compounds in the whole group of other small fruits and berries. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals for the whole subgroup of other small fruits and berries. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement of mineral copper independently from its chemical form are available for matrices under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 5 mg/kg. based on indicative risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the long-term intake of copper residues resulting from the intended and existing uses, natural background levels and monitoring levels might present a risk to consumer health. Although residues in other small fruits and berries are minor contributors to the overall consumer exposure, a risk management decision has to be taken on whether it is appropriate to increase the existing MRLs for these crops, given that a potential consumer intake concern could not be excluded.
