    2023年4月13日，欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）发布消息称，拟制定氟虫腈（fipronil）在马铃薯、甘蔗和动物源性产品中的进口限量。

根据欧盟委员会第396/2005号法规第6章， BASF SE 向奥地利国家主管部门提交申请，要求制定氟虫腈在马铃薯、甘蔗和动物源性产品中的进口限量。经过评估，欧盟食品安全局得出结论，消费者摄入问题与所考虑的食品中的氟虫腈残留无关。欧盟没有批准氟虫腈，欧盟MRL立法也没有规定氟虫腈的最高残留限量或进口允许量；因此，在消费者接触评估中没有考虑其他植物和动物商品。部分原文报道如下：

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant BASF SE submitted a request to the competent national authority in Austria to set an import tolerance for the active substance fipronil in potatoes, maize, rice, sugar canes and to modify the existing EU MRLs (maximum residue levels) for fipronil in commodities of animal origin. During the assessment, the applicant withdrew the import tolerance requests on maize and rice. The data submitted in support of the present assessment were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposal for sugar canes. For potatoes, data gaps were identified which precluded the derivation of MRL proposal. The livestock exposure to fipronil residues from the intake of sugar canes molasses required the setting of MRL in fat of bovine, sheep and goat. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the total residues of fipronil in plant and animal matrices at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) 0.005 mg/kg. based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that consumer intake concerns are not associated with fipronil residues in food commodities under consideration: sugar canes and fat of bovine, sheep and goat. There are no EU authorisations of fipronil as well as no Codex maximum residue limits (CXLs) or import tolerances are set for fipronil in the EU MRL legislation; therefore, other plant and animal commodities were not considered in the consumer exposure assessment.
