Approval of Test Marketing Exemption for a Certain New Chemical, 23167-23168 [05-8790]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 85 / Wednesday, May 4, 2005 / Notices tolerances will utilize 2.2% of the RfD for the U.S. population. G. Effects on the Immune and Endocrine Systems Lifespan, and multigenerational studies on mammals, and acute and subchronic studies on aquatic organisms and wildlife did not reveal any definite immune or endocrine effects. An immunotoxicity study in rats at 0, 1.25, 5 and 15 mg/kg/day with a NOAEL of 5 mg/kg/day based on decreased primary antibody (igM) response to sheep red blood cells; decreased absolute and relative thymus weights; decreased body weight, food consumption and food efficiency at the high dose level. The LOEL is 15 mg/kg/ day. Any endocrine related effects would have been detected in this definitive array of required tests. The probability of any such effect due to agricultural uses of AVG is considered negligible. H. Existing Tolerances Tolerances have been established for the residues of AVG in or on the following food commodities: Commodity Parts per million Apples 0.08 Fruit, stone, group 12, (except cherry) 0.170 Pears 0.08 I. International Tolerances There are no Codex maximum residue limits for use of aviglycine HCl on apples or pears, or on any other crop.
