Worksharing pilot project on Trifloxystrobin residues
2020Also available in:
No results found.The FAO/WHO/OECD pilot project on work sharing was carried out to test the use of national and international evaluations of pesticide residues and toxicology by the JMPR. The 2003 CCPR selected trifloxystrobin as the first compound for the work sharing pilot project because it had been evaluated in Australia, Canada, the USA and the EU and was scheduled for evaluation by the JMPR in 2004. The project is supported by the OECD, FAO, WHO, JMPR and national and regional authorities. The objective of the work sharing project is to use national and regional evaluations to facilitate and expedite reviews, while maintaining independence and incorporating global perspectives. Work sharing is intended to increase efficiency, resulting in a reduction of the workload. -

Also available in:
No results found.The Joint Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) is an expert ad hoc body administered jointly by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Although the JMPR is an independent body that can respond to requests for advice from a variety of sources, its primary function is in the provision of scientific advice to the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). This advice relates to pesticide residues, including recommendations for Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) and Acceptable Daily Intakes (ADIs). -

Report of the special session of the Joint Meeting of the FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food and the Environment and the WHO Core Assessment Group on Pesticide Residues Geneva, Switzerland, 9–13 May 2016
2016Also available in:
No results found.A Joint Meeting of the FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food and the Environment and the WHO Core Assessment Group on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) was held in Geneva, Switzerland, from 9 to 13 May 2016. The three pesticides evaluated at the meeting were placed on the agenda by the JMPR Secretariat following the recommendation of an electronic task force of the WHO Core Assessment Group that they be re-evaluated due to public health concerns identified by the International Agency for Re search on Cancer (IARC) and the availability of a significant number of new studies. During the meeting, the WHO Core Assessment Group was responsible for reviewing epidemiological, toxicological and related data in order to establish acceptable daily intakes (ADIs) and acute reference doses (ARfDs) of the pesticides for humans, where necessary. As no residue data were requested, the FAO Expert was responsible for estimating the dietary exposures (both short-term and long-term) to the pesticide s reveiewed and, on this basis, performed dietary risk assessments in relation to their ADIs or ARfDs. This report contains information on ADIs, ARfDs and general principles for the evaluation of pesticides. The recommendations of the Joint Meeting, including further research and information, are proposed for use by Member governments of the respective agencies and other interested parties.
