Peer review of the pesticide risk assessment for the active substance cypermethrin in light of confirmatory data submitted.
Abstract
The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) following the peer review of the initial risk assessment carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State Belgium, for the pesticide active substance cypermethrin are reported. The peer review was requested by the European Commission following the submission and evaluation of confirmatory information, as set out in the renewal of approval of cypermethrin under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, focused on the relative toxicity of individual cypermethrin isomers (four enantiomeric pairs). The reliable endpoints concluded as being appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment, where relevant to the scope of this evaluation, are presented. The submitted information was considered suitable for a qualitative, but not quantitative, comparison of the individual cypermethrin enantiomers. Issues not finalised and critical areas of concerns previously identified in the renewal peer review remain applicable.
