根據歐盟條例（EC）No 396/2005第6章的規(guī)定，Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH提交了該修訂申請。根據風險評估結果，歐洲食品安全局得出結論，由于預期和現有用途、自然背景水平和監(jiān)測水平而導致的銅殘留物的長期攝入可能對消費者的健康構成風險。部分原文報道如下：

 

　　In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH submitted a request to the competent national authority in Austria to modify the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the active substance copper compounds in the whole group of other small fruits and berries. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals for the whole subgroup of other small fruits and berries. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement of mineral copper independently from its chemical form are available for matrices under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 5 mg/kg. based on indicative risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the long-term intake of copper residues resulting from the intended and existing uses, natural background levels and monitoring levels might present a risk to consumer health. Although residues in other small fruits and berries are minor contributors to the overall consumer exposure, a risk management decision has to be taken on whether it is appropriate to increase the existing MRLs for these crops, given that a potential consumer intake concern could not be excluded.
