Evaluations

Evaluation year: 2009

ADI:
0-11 mg/kg bw

Comments:
Of the four maximum use levels (250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg/kg) that the Committee considered that only the lowest level of 250 mg/kg was not likely to lead to dietary exposures exceeding the ADI for high consumers, including children. Moreover, it was noted that a maximum use level of 350 mg/kg also resulted in dietary exposures for high consumers, including children, that were less than the ADI.
