Notes to Annex 4
1. Temporary acceptance
2. Temporary MRL
3. Group MRL for febantel, fenbendazole, and oxfendazole individually or
in combination. The MRL value is the sum of the concentrations of
fenbendazole, oxfendazole, and oxfendazole sulfone, calculated as
oxfendazole sulfone equivalents.
4. WHO Technical Report Series, No. 788, 1989.
5. Insufficient toxicological information was available to establish
an ADI.
6. MRLs were not established because an ADI was not allocated.
7. Insufficient information was available to establish an MRL.
