METABOLITES & DEGRADATES:
2,6,-difluorobenzoic acid
2,6,-difluorobenzamide
4-(2-chloro,á, á, á trifluoro-p-tolyoxy)-2-fluorophenyl
urea (WL129183)
4-(2-chloro,á, á, á rifluoro-p-tolyoxy)-2-fluoroaniline
(WL15096)
• The database is adequate
for establishment of tolerances on the requested commodities,
except for a developmental toxicity
study in rat which was classified as unacceptable/guideline.
However, this study provides adequate information to conclude
that flufenoxuron was not fetotoxic at doses up to the limit
dose. Only an acute oral toxicity study in rat was submitted,
which was placed in Toxicity Category IV. Acute
toxicity studies are not required for import tolerance. |

European
Union: Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed
Alert
Notifications are sent when the food or feed presenting the
risk is on the market and when immediate action is required.
Alerts are triggered by the Member State that detects the
problem and has initiated the relevant easures, such as withdrawal/recall.
The notification aims at giving all the members of the network
the information to verify whether the concerned product is
on their market, so that they also can take the necessary
measures.
