F.2 Risk assessment for the sum of 3‐MCPD and 3‐MCPD fatty acid esters (expressed as 3‐MCPD) based on the maximum limit (2.5 mg/kg) in E 476 proposed by the IBO (Documentation provided to EFSA n. 1) considering the proposed extension of use

Proposed extension of use
Potential exposure to E 476 (mg/kg bw per day) % of the TDI for the sum of 3‐MCPD and 3‐MCPD fatty acid esters (expressed as 3‐MCPD) at 2.5 mg/kg
9.1 a 1.1
23.2 b 2.9

3‐MCPD: 3‐monochloropropane diol; bw: body weight; TDI: Tolerable Daily Intake.

a

Highest exposure level among the different population groups (regulatory maximum level scenario ‐ children ‐ mean (Table 6)).

b

Highest exposure level among the different population groups (regulatory maximum level scenario – children – 95th percentile (Table 6)).
