IIIA 8 METABOLISM AND RESIDUES DATA

Regulatory Background

The plant protection product Batavia (15615 N) is authorised in the Netherlands for indoor use on various

edible and non-edible commodities. With the current application, the applicant seeks for registration of

minor indoor uses in: other leafy vegetables excluding witloof chicory (watercress, lamb’s lettuce, rocket,

sea lavender), endive, vegetables sprouts, baby leaf crops, leafy brassica, aromatic herbs, and plant

breeding crops and basic seed production. Since the intended indoor use in plant breeding crops and basic

seed production is not relevant for the section of residues and consumer safety, this intended use will not

be discussed in this document.

It is noted that for the current application for extension of authorisation for minor uses, the risk envelop

approach is applied. Therefore, data points that are covered by the main authorisation will not be

summarised again.

IIIA 8.1 Stability of Residues

The stability of residues is covered by the main authorisation.

Conclusion:

Residues of spirotetramat should be considered stable for at least 18 months in high-water, high starch

and high oil content matrices when analysed for the sum of spirotetramat and spirotetramat-enol.

Spirotetramat-ketohydroxy, spirotetramat-enol-Glc and spirotetramat-mono hydroxy stable for at least 18

months in high-water, high starch and high oil content matrices, and 5 and 12 months in orange juice,

prune and tomato past, respectively.

Concerning the stability of residues in sample extracts, the analytical procedure is routinely monitored by

performing concurrent recoveries with each sample set when conducting residue analysis on regular

samples.

IIIA 8.2 Supplementary studies on metabolism in plants or livestock

The metabolism in plants and livestock is covered by the main authorisation.

It is noted that during the peer review , the residue definitions in plants were proposed as "sum of

spirotetramat and spirotetramat-enol, expressed as spirotetramat" and "sum of spirotetramat,

spirotetramat-enol, spirotetramat-enol-Glc, spirotetramat-ketohydroxy and spirotetramat-monohydroxy,

expressed as spirotetramat" for monitoring and risk assessment, respectively (EFSA, 2013). However, the

current residue definition for monitoring as set in Reg. (EC) No 396/2005 is "sum of spirotetramat,

spirotetramat-enol, spirotetramat-enol-Glc, spirotetramat-ketohydroxy and spirotetramat-monohydroxy,

expressed as spirotetramat". Therefore, the latter residue definition including the parent and four

metabolites is considered for monitoring and risk assessment in this document.

Likewise, the residue definitions for livestock differ between the peer review and Reg. (EC) No

396/2005. In the peer review, the residue definitions were set as "spirotetramat-enol expressed as

spirotetramat" and "sum of spirotetramat-enol and spirotetramat-enol-GA expressed as spirotetramat" for

monitoring and riskassessment, respectively. In Reg. (EC) No 396/2005, the residue definitions are

"spirotetramat, spirotetramat-enol and spirotetramat-enolglucuronide, expressed as spirotetramat" for

monitoring and risk assessment alike. Similarily to plants, the residue definitions according to Reg. (EC)

No 396/2005 are considered in the current document.

Three studies investigating the magnitude of spirotetramat residues in lettuce are available that were

conducted in the growing seasons 2004 and 2005 under greenhouse conditions. The studies were already

evaluated in the DAR by Austria and by EFSA during the peer review of spirotetramat to support the

representative indoor use in lettuce according to the GAP 2 x 72 g/ha, interval 14 d, PHI 7 d (Austria,

2013; EFSA, 2013). The studies were considered acceptable and are therefore not summarised in detail

anymore in this document. Instead, only the summary tables of the supervised residue trials are presented

below for the sake of completeness. Residue levels were selected according to the residue definitions that

are currently in force (see IIIA 8.2). The slight difference in the application rate between the peer review

and the current application (72 g/ha cf. 75 g/ha) is considered to have a negligible impact on the residue

levels.

All trials were conducted in lettuce. According to SANCO/7525/VI/95 Rev. 9 (March 2011), trials on

open leaf varieties of lettuce can be extrapolated to watercresses, lamb’s lettuce, rocket, and sea

lavanders. It is noted that the latter crop falls under purslanes in Annex I of Reg. (EC) No 396/2005 and

therefore, the MRL of purslanes applied to sea lavender. The crops under consideration are all minor

crops in NEU; therefore, 4 trials are considered sufficient for evaluation. From the available trials, 10

trials were conducted on open leaf varieties and are considered for evaluation. Based upon these trials, an

MRL of 6.00 mg/kg is calculated. Existing MRLs of spirotetramat as established by Reg. (EU) No

According to SANCO/7525/VI/95 Rev. 9 (March 2011), trials on open leaf varieties of lettuce can be

extrapolated to endives. Endive is considered as a minor crop in NEU; therefore, 4 trials are considered

sufficient for evaluation. The 10 trials that were conducted on open leaf varieties of lettuce (see IIIA

8.3.1) are considered acceptable for evaluation. Based upon these trials, an MRL of 6.00 mg/kg is

calculated. The existing MRL of spirotetramat as established by Reg. (EU) No 2017/1016 in endive is at

7.00 mg/kg; an MRL exceendance is not expected.

To support the indoor use in leafy brassica, two new studies in paksoi were submitted. These studies are

summarised below. The study summary table for both studies is shown in Table 8.3.4-4 and an overview

of residue levels and the derived endpoints are shown in Table 8.3.4-2.

Four indoor trials were conducted in paksoi to support the intended use in leafy brassica. Leafy brassica

are a minor crop in NEU, therefore 4 trials are required to support the intended use. Paksoi falls under

Chinese cabbages/pe-tsai in Annex I of Reg. (EC) No 396/2005. According to SANCO/7525/VI/95 Rev.

9 (March 2011), trials on Chinese cabbages cannot be used to support the intended use in the whole

subgroup of leafy brassica. Therefore, no trials are available for evaluation of the intended use in the

whole subgroup of leafy brassica.

In agreement with the applicant, the intended use in leafy brassica was restricted to Chinese cabbage only.

Based upon the available trials in paksoi, an MRL of 4.00 mg/kg is calculated. The existing MRL of

spirotetramat as established by Reg. (EU) No 2017/1016 in Chinese cabbage is at 7.00 mg/kg; an MRL

exceendance is not expected.

Materials & methods

The objective of the study is to determine the decline of the residues of spirotetramat and its metabolites

in protected paksoi in two trials in the Netherlands resulting from two applications of Movento. Movento

is an SC formulation containing 100 g/L spirotetramat as active substance. The test item is considered

adequate to support the intended uses of Batavia in leafy brassica. Each trials consisted of an untreated

and a treated plot. Two foliar applications at nominally 75 g a.s./ha were conducted on the treated plots

with an interval of 14 days. Both applications were performed between growth stages BBCH 44-47.

Specimens from treated plots were taken at -0 (sampling prior to last application), 0, 1, 3, and 7 days after

the last application for both trials. Specimens of control samples were taken at -0 and 3 days after the last

application. Specimens were frozen within 12 hours after sampling and kept below -18 °C during storage.

Paksoi specimens were analysed for spirotetramat and its metabolites spirotetramat-enol, spirotetramat-

ketohydroxy, spirotetramat-monohydroxy, and spirotetramat-enol-glucoside using the validated Bayer

Crop Science (BCS) LC-MS/MS method 01207. The LOQ of the method is 0.01 mg/kg for each analyte.

During the analysis of field samples, concurrent recoveries were determined.

Results and discussion

The trials were conducted according to the intended GAP for leafy brassica (2 x 75 g a.s./ha, interval 14

d, PHI 3 d).

Samples were stored for maximally 3 months. This period is sufficiently covered by available storage

stability data.

The concurrent recoveries are shown in Table 8.3.4-3. Individual and overall recoveries, as well as the

RSD, were within the acceptable ranges. The analytical method is considered acceptable.

Aromatic herbs NL 2 14 200-1000 75 7

According to SANCO/7525/VI/95 Rev. 9 (March 2011), trials on open leaf varieties of lettuce can be

extrapolated to the whole subgroup (f) of herbs and edible flower. Due to a discrepancy between Annex I

of Reg. (EC) No 396/2005 and the Dutch list of uses, the subgroup (f) of herbs and edible flowers as

listed in Annex I only includes the aromatic herbs as listed in the Dutch list of uses. Therefore, an

application was made for aromatic herbs according to the Dutch list of uses. Herbs and edible

flower/aromatic herbs are considered as minor crops in NEU; therefore, 4 trials are considered sufficient

for evaluation. The 10 trials that were conducted on open leaf varieties of lettuce (see IIIA 8.3.1) are

considered acceptable for evaluation. Based upon these trials, an MRL of 6.00 mg/kg is calculated. The

existing MRL of spirotetramat as established by Reg. (EU) No 2017/1016 in herbs and edible

flowers/aromatic herbs is at 4.00 mg/kg; an MRL exceedance cannot be excluded. At the time point of

MRL setting (EFSA, 2011), the same data set was available as the one presented in this dossier. In the

Reasoned Opinion, however, a mistake was apparently made since the highest residue from the

greenhouse trials in open leaf varieties (3.442 mg/kg) was not considered in the Reasoned Opinion. There

are no obvious reasons why this value should be discarded from the data set. Therefore, the value is

considered within this application. As a consequence, the existing MRL is expected to be exceeded.

However, considering that 7 out of the 10 available trials were conducted with three applications instead

of the intended two, residue levels are rather overestimated. This is highlighted by the fact that the three

available trials conducted with two applications resulted in lower residue levels (0.74-1.057 mg/kg cf.

1.296-3.442 mg/kg for two and three applications, respectively). Based upon expert judgement, it is not

expected that the existing MRL will be exceeded if aromatic herbs are treated according to the intended

GAP.

IIIA 8.4 Supplementary Livestock Feeding Studies

Residues in livestock are not covered by the main authorisation.

Of the crops under consideration only kale, which falls under the leafy brassica, may be fed to livestock.

Since no supervised residue trials are available to support this use, the dietary burden cannot be

calculated. Of the uses recommended for authorisation, no crops are fed to livestock and therefore the

aspect of residues in livestock does not need to be addressed.

IIIA 8.5 Supplementary Studies on Industrial Processing and/or Household

Preparation

The aspect of residues in processed commodities is covered by the main authorization.

IIIA 8.6 Supplementary Studies for Residues in Representative Succeeding Crops

The aspect of residues in succeeding crops is covered by the main authorisation.

IIIA 8.7 Proposed Residue Definition and Maximum Residue Levels

IIIA 8.7.1 Proposed residue definition

The proposed residue definitions are covered by the main authorisation.

It is noted that during the peer review , the residue definitions in plants were proposed as "sum of

spirotetramat and spirotetramat-enol, expressed as spirotetramat" and "sum of spirotetramat,

spirotetramat-enol, spirotetramat-enol-Glc, spirotetramat-ketohydroxy and spirotetramat-monohydroxy,

expressed as spirotetramat" for monitoring and risk assessment, respectively (EFSA, 2013). However, the

current residue definition for monitoring as set in Reg. (EC) No 396/2005 is "sum of spirotetramat,

spirotetramat-enol, spirotetramat-enol-Glc, spirotetramat-ketohydroxy and spirotetramat-monohydroxy,

expressed as spirotetramat". Therefore, the latter residue definition including the parent and four

metabolites is considered for monitoring and risk assessment in this document.

Likewise, the residue definitions for livestock differ between the peer review and Reg. (EC) No

396/2005. In the peer review, the residue definitions were set as "spirotetramat-enol expressed as

spirotetramat" and "sum of spirotetramat-enol and spirotetramat-enol-GA expressed as spirotetramat" for

monitoring and riskassessment, respectively. In Reg. (EC) No 396/2005, the residue definitions are

"spirotetramat, spirotetramat-enol and spirotetramat-enolglucuronide, expressed as spirotetramat" for

monitoring and risk assessment alike. Similarily to plants, the residue definitions according to Reg. (EC)

No 396/2005 are considered in the current document.

IIIA 8.7.2 Proposed maximum residue levels (MRLs)

MRLs are set at European Level and the review is performed by EFSA. The EU MRLs and calculated

MRLs for the crops considered in this dossier are summarised in Table 8.7.2-1. An MRL exceedance is

not expected for the intended indoor uses in other leafy vegetables excluding witloof chicory (watercress,

lamb’s lettuce, rocket, sea lavender), endive, and baby leaf crops. In contrast, the MRL for herbs and

edible flowers/aromatic herbs is expected to be exceeded..No trials are available for evaluation of the

intended use in the whole subgroup of leafy brassica.

In agreement with the applicant, the intended use in leafy brassica was restricted to Chinese cabbage only

In order to evaluate the potential chronic and acute exposure to spirotetramat residues through the diet,

the intakes were estimated using the EFSA PRIMo (revision 2). This exposure assessment model contains

the relevant European food consumption data for different sub-groups of the EU population. For the

calculation of chronic and acute exposure, use is made of the input values for commodities from the latest

EFSA opinion (EFSA Journal 2017;15(1):4684). These input values cover the intended uses of Batavia

except for herbs and edible flowers. Since this use is currently not recommended for authorisation due to

an MRL exceedance, it is not considered necessary to perform a new consumer risk assessment. Before

the use in herbs and edible flowers may be authorised, an MRL application needs to be submitted in

which the consumer risk assessment will be conducted based on the available data.

Long-term or acute consumer intake concerns were not identified by EFSA for any of the European diets

incorporated in the EFSA PRIMo. The highest chronic intake accounted for 37% of the ADI (WHO

cluster B) and the highest acute exposure for 48% of the ARfD for escarole (German toddler) which is

also a crop under consideration in this dossier.

IIIA 8.11 Summary and Evaluation of Residue Behaviour

The plant protection product Batavia (15615 N) is authorised in the Netherlands for indoor use on various

edible and non-edible commodities. With the current application, the applicant seeks for registration of

minor indoor uses in: other leafy vegetables excluding witloof chicory (watercress, lamb’s lettuce, rocket,

sea lavender), endive, vegetables sprouts, baby leaf crops, leafy brassica, aromatic herbs, and plant

breeding crops and basic seed production. Since the intended indoor use in plant breeding crops and basic

seed production is not relevant for the section of residues and consumer safety, this intended use was not

discussed in this document.

The majority of information and data were already evaluated in the main authorisation. The metabolism

of spirotetramat in plants, animals, rotational crops, and processed commodities is covered by the main

authorisation. Likewise, storage stability was sufficiently demonstrated before.

Other leafy vegetables excluding witloof chicory (watercresses, lamb’s lettuce, rocket, sea

lavender); endives; baby leaf crops; aromatic herbs

cGAP-NL: 2 x 75 g a.s./ha, interval 14 d, PHI 7 d

Three studies investigating the magnitude of spirotetramat residues in lettuce are available that were

already evaluated in the DAR by Austria and by EFSA during the peer review of spirotetramat to support

the representative indoor use in lettuce according to the GAP 2 x 72 g/ha, interval 14 d, PHI 7 d (Austria,

2013; EFSA, 2013). The studies were considered acceptable and were therefore not summarised in detail

anymore within this application. Residue levels were selected according to the residue definitions that are

currently in force. The slight difference in the application rate between the peer review and the current

application (72 g/ha cf. 75 g/ha) is considered to have a negligible impact on the residue levels.

According to SANCO/7525/VI/95 Rev. 9 (March 2011), trials on open leaf varieties of lettuce can be

extrapolated to watercresses, lamb’s lettuce, rocket, sea lavender, endives, baby leaf crops, and the whole

subgroup of herbs and edible flowers. It is noted that: (i) sea lavender falls under purslanes in Annex I of

Reg. (EC) No 396/2005 and therefore, the MRL of purslanes applied to sea lavender; and (ii) due to a

discrepancy between Annex I of Reg. (EC) No 396/2005 and the Dutch list of uses, the subgroup of herbs

and edible flowers as listed in Annex I only includes the aromatic herbs as listed in the Dutch list of uses.

Therefore, an application was made for aromatic herbs according to the Dutch list of uses.

Watercresses, lamb’s lettuce, rocket, sea lavender, endives, baby leaf crops, and the whole subgroup of

herbs and edible flowers are all minor crops in NEU; therefore, 4 trials are considered sufficient for

evaluation. From the available trials, 10 trials were conducted on open leaf varieties and are considered

for evaluation. Based upon these trials, an MRL of 6.00 mg/kg is calculated. Existing MRLs of

spirotetramat as established by Reg. (EU) No 2017/1016 in watercresses, lamb’s lettuce, rocket, and

purslanes/sea lavanders, endives, and baby leaf crops are at 7.00 mg/kg; an MRL exceendance is not

expected. In contrast, the existing MRL of spirotetramat in herbs and edible flowers is at 4.0 mg/kg; i.e.

an MRL exceedance cannot be excluded. At the time point of MRL setting (EFSA, 2011), the same data

set was available as the one presented in this dossier. In the Reasoned Opinion, however, a mistake was

apparently made since the highest residue from the greenhouse trials in open leaf varieties (3.442 mg/kg)

was not considered in the Reasoned Opinion. There are no obvious reasons why this value should be

discarded from the data set. Therefore, the value is considered within this application. As a consequence,

the existing MRL is expected to be exceeded. However, considering that 7 out of the 10 available trials

were conducted with three applications instead of the intended two, residue levels are rather

overestimated. This is highlighted by the fact that the three available trials conducted with two

applications resulted in lower residue levels (0.74-1.057 mg/kg cf. 1.296-3.442 mg/kg for two and three

applications, respectively). Based upon expert judgement, it is not expected that the existing MRL will be

exceeded if aromatic herbs are treated according to the intended GAP.

To support the indoor use in leafy brassica, two new studies with, in total, four trials in paksoi were

submitted. Paksoi falls under Chinese cabbages/pe-tsai in Annex I of Reg. (EC) No 396/2005. According

to SANCO/7525/VI/95 Rev. 9 (March 2011), trials on Chinese cabbages cannot be used to support the

intended use in the whole subgroup of leafy brassica. Therefore, no trials are available for evaluation. The

intended use in leafy brassica is not recommended for authorisation.

In agreement with the applicant, the intended use in leafy brassica was restricted to Chinese cabbage only.

Based upon the available trials in paksoi, an MRL of 4.00 mg/kg is calculated. The existing MRL of

spirotetramat as established by Reg. (EU) No 2017/1016 in Chinese cabbage is at 7.00 mg/kg; an MRL

exceendance is not expected.

Of the crops under consideration only kale, which falls under the leafy brassica, may be fed to livestock.

Since the intended use in leafy brassica was restricted to Chinese cabbage only during the course of the

evaluation, none of the intended uses are fed to livestock and therefore the aspect of residues in livestock

does not need to be addressed.

Residues in succeeding crops are covered by the main authorisation.

The dietary risk estimated for a short-term or a long-term consumption of residues of spirotetramat was

estimated using the EFSA PRIMo model rev. 2. No acute or chronic risk to the consumer was identified.
