1 The purity indicated in  this column was the minimum degree of purity of the active substance evaluated . The active substance in the product placed on the market can be of 
equal or different purity if it has been proven to be technically equivalent to the evaluated active substan ce.  
EN 2  EN 3) 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 Council2 or Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the 
European Parliament and of the Council3 shall be

shall be taken to ensure that the applicable MRLs are 
not exceeded.
