Here you find a retrospective monthly summary of relevant notifications about MRLs exceeded reported in the European Rapid Alert System (RASFF) supplemented about remarkable results found in our own laboratories in residue analysis.
Notification from RASFF 08/01 – 08/31/2022
Via this link you can download a table from the European Rapid alert system (RASFF) with important notifications from product category fruit & vegetables.
It is remarkable that in August no notification of exceeding MRLs in fresh peppers were listed. We assume that the authorities focused their monitoring on other fruit and vegetables in their sampling schemes.
