The active involvement of EFSA in the area of pesticide residues assessment started in 2006 following the adoption of new legislation on maximum residue levels (MRLs) of pesticides in food (Regulation (EC) No 396/2005). EFSA took on a new role as an indep ...
EFSA is revising and updating the Ecotoxicology Guidance Document on Terrestrial Risk Assessment of Pesticides (SANCO/10329/2002). For this purpose an overview was written of available scientific information on the composition of non-target arthropod spec ...
In response to the new Regulation 1107/2009, The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) funded an 18-month project to address cumulative exposure to plant protection products (PPPs) by means of carrying out pilot surveys in six EU Member States (MS), using ...
A systematic literature search identified publications relevant to repeated (94 papers) and mixture exposure (152 papers) of aquatic organisms. Limited data are available on pulsed exposure of pesticides and reports on repeated pulse or fluctuating exposu ...
The aim of this study was to provide EFSA with information relating to assessment of the risk to amphibians posed by pesticide exposure. In the first part of the study the European amphibian species associated with agricultural habitats were identified wi ...
Risk assessment of pesticides aims to ensure they cause no harm to humans, domestic animals or the environment. This report reviews the current position of sediment toxicity testing with potential applicability to pesticide assessment. A literature search ...
In the present literature review, we compiled the available scientific information on the ecological recovery of populations of vulnerable species driving the risk assessment of pesticides in the context of reviewing the aquatic and terrestrial guidance d ...
Bees are important pollinators of both managed crops and wild flora. An overview of the interactions between pesticides and other factors in effects on bees considered: 1) The importance of the different exposure routes in relation to the overall exposure ...
This project comprised the development of a commodity-based hazard identification protocol for biological hazards in plants and animals as a decision support tree programmed in Excel. The content of the decision tree is based on the results of a systemati ...
