Wheat, bran 3 < 0.25; 0.93; 1.68 < 0.93 TAA France (2021)
3 1.68; 2.09; 2.13 2.09 TA, TLA Residues of TLA < 0.01 mg/kg in raw and processed commodity in two out of the three studies (France, 2021). In these studies, LOQ of 0.01 mg/kg was used for TLA in raw and processed commodities for the calculation of the PFs.
Wheat, flour 3 0.85; 1.55; 1.58 1.55 TAA France (2021)
3 0.97; 0.98; 1.25 0.98 TA, TLA Residues of TLA < 0.01 mg/kg in raw and processed commodity in two out of the three studies (France, 2021). In these studies, LOQ of 0.01 mg/kg was used for TLA in raw and processed commodities for the calculation of the PFs.
Wheat, whole meal flour 1 0.80 0.80 TAA Tentative b (France, 2021)
1 0.92 0.92 TA, TLA Tentative b , residues of TLA < 0.01 mg/kg in raw and processed commodity (France, 2021). LOQ of 0.01 mg/kg was used for TLA for the calculation of the PF.

PF: Processing factor (=Residue level in processed commodity expressed according to RD‐Mo/ Residue level in raw commodity expressed according to RD‐Mo).

a

Studies with residues in the RAC at or close to the LOQ were disregarded (unless concentration may occur).

b

A tentative PF is derived based on a limited data set.
