Studies with residues in the RAC at or close to the LOQ were disregarded (unless concentration may occur).
Based on residue trials compliant with the critical GAP (drenching 50 g/hl; WHP 0 d, including replicates) performed on oranges (n = 15 ranging from 0.01 to 0.28) and mandarins (n = 16 ranging from 0.01 to 0.25) (Netherlands, 2015; Spain, 2016) and considering the processing factors derived during the peer review on oranges (0.08), lemons (0.04; 0.04; 0.05) and grapefruits (0.13) (EFSA, 2010).
Based on sampling performed at PHI 28 days (Greece, 2018).
Although only 2 studies are available, this PF is considered robust because the two available data show that significant residues are not expected in boiled potatoes (unpeeled and peeled).
Based on residue trials performed with a higher application rate compared to GAP (Belgium, 1996).
Conversion factor for risk assessment. Considering that all processing factors derived in this table are linked to raw commodities subject to post‐harvest uses, no CF can be derived: To be established (TBE) upon a decision on the residue definition for risk assessment after post‐harvest uses.
