PF: Processing factor (=Residue level in processed commodity expressed according to RD‐Mo/Residue level in raw commodity expressed according to RD‐Mo);
Studies with residues in the RAC at or close to the LOQ were disregarded (unless concentration may occur).
A tentative PF is derived based on a limited dataset.
