A Joint FAO/WHO Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) was held at the headquarters of the World Health Organization (WHO), Geneva, Switzerland, from 18 to 27 September 2007. The Meeting brought together the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food and the Environment and the WHO Core Assessment Group.
The Meeting evaluated 31 pesticides, including 6 new compounds and 10 compounds that were reviewed within the Periodic Re-evaluation Programme of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR) for toxicity or residues, or both. Toxicological evaluation and development of MRLs was also performed for 12 additional pesticides .
The Meeting established ADIs and ARfDs, estimated MRLs and recommended them for use by the CCPR, and estimated STMR and highest residue (HR) levels as a basis for estimating dietary intakes.
