Pesticide Residue Exceedance and Dietary Risk (EFSA OpenFoodTox)
Evaluate pesticide MRL exceedances and PRIMo acute/chronic dietary exposure against EFSA OpenFoodTox 3.0 benchmark data.
Which market this reads
What this check reads: European Union. No other market is covered.
Reads EU Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, SANTE uncertainty rules, EFSA PRIMo exposure model, and EFSA MIXTOX rules. US FDA and UK FSA registers are not read.
What it does
Evaluates pesticide MRL exceedances, SANTE 50% uncertainty deductions, PRIMo acute/chronic dietary exposure, and MIXTOX cumulative hazard index against EFSA OpenFoodTox 3.0.
Ask it like this
youEvaluate Flupyradifurone residue on tomatoes at 0.68 mg/kg against MRL 0.40 mg/kg under SANTE/12682/2019 and EFSA PRIMo rules.
