Concentration of methoxycoumarins and 5‐methoxypsoralen in feed for chickens for fattening (as μg/kg complete feed) and their intake (as μg/kg bw per day) calculated at the maximum proposed use level of the additive in feed (8.5 mg/kg), considering the average and the maximum analysed value for each congener in the additive
