of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. 
The product assessment shall pay particular attention to the 
exposures, the risks and the efficacy linked to any uses covered 
by an application for authorisation, but not addressed in the Union level risk assessment of the active substance. 
For biocidal products, author isations are subject to the 
following condition: 
For professional users, safe operational procedures and 
appropriate organizational measures shall be established. Only where exposure cannot be reduced to an acceptable level by 
other means, products shall be us ed with appropriate personal 
protective equipment  
 
                                                 
1 The purity indicated in this column was the minimum degree of pu rity of the active substance used for the evaluation made in a ccordance with Article 16(2) of Directive 
98/8/EC. The active substance in the product placed on the market can be of equal or different purity if it has been proven tec hnically equivalent with the evaluated active 
substance.

candidate for substitution in acco rdance with Ar ticle 10(1)(d)

The product assessment shall pay particular attention to the 
exposures, the risks and the efficacy linked to any uses covered 
by an application for authorisation, but not addressed in the Union level risk assessment of the active substance. 
For biocidal products, author isations are subject to the 
following conditions: 
(1) For products that may lead to residues in food or feed, 
the need to set new or to amend existing maximum 
residue levels (MRLs) in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 of the European Parliament and of 
the Council
2 or Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the 
European Parliament and of the Council3 shall be 
verified, and any appropriate risk mitigation measures 
shall be taken to ensure th at the applicable MRLs are 
not exceeded. 
(2) Products shall not be incorporated in materials and 
articles intended to come into contact with food 
within the meaning of Article 1(1) of Regulation (EC) 
No 1935/2004, unless the Commission has 
established specific limits on the migration of 5-Chloro-2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-phenol into food or it 
has been established pursuant to that Regulation that 
such limits are not necessary.
