Cross-contamination of non-target feedingstuffs by semduramicin authorised for use as a feed additive Scientific opinion of the Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain

چکیده
Semduramicin is a polyether ionophoric agent that is authorised as a coccidiostat for use in chickens for fattening with a maximum content of the active substance in feed of 25 mg/kg according to Regulation (EC) No 1041/2002. Despite the requirements set for feed business operators in Regulation No (EC) 183/2005, it is generally acknowledged that under practical conditions during the production of mixed feeds, a certain percentage of a feed batch remains in the production circuit and these residual amounts can contaminate the subsequent feed batches. This cross-contamination may result in the exposure of non-target animal species, and hence the potential health risks for non-target animal species as well as the potential residue deposition in foods derived from these non-target animal species have been evaluated.
