TABLE 6.
Combined margin of exposure (MOET) for the assessment group CG 31,VI calculated for the different target animal categories at the proposed use levels in feed and maximum safe use levels in feed calculated to ensure a MOET ≥ 100 (500 for cats).
| Animal category | Daily feed intake mg DM/kg bw) | Proposed use level (mg/kg complete feed) 1 | Lowest MOET CG 31,VI | Maximum safe use level (mg/kg complete feed) 1 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chickens for fattening | 79 | 10 | 52 | 5 |
| Laying hens | 53 | 10 | 78 | 8 |
| Turkeys for fattening | 59 | 10 | 70 | 7 |
| Piglets | 44 | 15 | 62 | 9 |
| Pigs for fattening | 37 | 15 | 74 | 11 |
| Sows lactating | 30 | 15 | 91 | 14 |
| Veal calves (milk replacer) | 19 | 15 | 154 | ‐ 2 |
| Cattle for fattening | 20 | 15 | 137 | ‐ |

| Horses | 20 | 10 | 205 | ‐ |
| Rabbits | 50 | 20 | 41 | 8 |

| Dogs | 17 | 20 | 121 | ‐ |

1
Complete feed containing 88% dry matter (DM), milk replacer 94.5% DM.
2
For the species for which the MOET is > 100, the proposed use level is considered safe.
3
The MOET for cats is increased to 500 because of the reduced capacity of glucuronidation.
