The JMPR evaluated 19 pesticides, estimated maximum residue levels (MRLs) in foods and estimated supervised trials median residue (STMR) and highest residue (HR) levels as a basis for estimation of the dietary exposure to residues of the pesticides reviewed.
The table below summarizes the MRLs recommended for nuts and dried fruits.
| Pesticide | Commodity | Recommended MRL (mg/kg) |
|
| New | Previous | ||
| Boscalid (221) | Prunes, dried | 5 | 10 |
| Chlorothalonil (081) | Cranberry | 5 | W |
| Fenazaquin (297) | Tree nuts, Group of (except coconut) | 0.02 | – |
| Mesotrione (277) | Tree nuts Group of (includes all commodities in this group) | 0.01* | |
| Metaflumizone (236) | Raisins | 13 | |
W means that the previous recommendation is withdrawn, or withdrawal of the recommended Maximum residue level or existing Codex or draft MRL is recommended.
* means that the MRL is at or about the limit of quantification.
