STMR: median residue value; HR: highest residue; PeF: peeling factor; CXL: Codex maximum residue limit; LOQ: limit of quantification.

Indicates that the input value is set at the limit of quantification.

^(a)

LOQ of 0.02 mg/kg was applied to tree nuts oilseeds and oil fruits and herbs and edible flowers, and of 0.05 mg/kg to tea, coffee beans, herbal infusions, cocoa beans, carobs, hops and spices. A default LOQ of 0.01 mg/kg for all other commodities was applied.
