Iprodione An MRL of 0.1 mg/kg for all other foods except animal food commodities for iprodione was gazetted in 2017. This MRL was reviewed as part of M1014 and no change is proposed. Malathion (Maldison) Malathion was excluded from consideration of an All other foods except animal food commodities MRL because the NEDI from existing permissions is >80% of the ADI. Mesotrione Mesotrione was excluded from consideration of an All other foods except animal food MRL as there is no registered use of mesotrione in Australia. commodities Metaflumizone Metaflumizone was excluded from consideration of an All other foods except animal food commodities MRL as there is no registered use of metaflumizone in Australia. Metalaxyl & Metalaxyl-M (Mefenoxam) An All other foods except animal food commodities MRL of 0.05 mg/kg is proposed based on the following considerations: Considerations Comments Limit of determination (LOD) 0.01-0.1 mg/kg (indicated by * for existing MRLs) Lowest plant commodity MRL *0.01 mg/kg (Beetroot, Papaya) (* denotes set at the Limit of Determination) Magnitude of existing plant commodity The range of existing MRLs is T*0.01/0.01 mg/kg MRLs (Beetroot, Papaya [paw paw]) to 10 mg/kg (Hops, dry).
