Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) proposed revisions to Japan’s maximum residue levels for 7 agricultural chemicals (Triflumizole, 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid, Flometoquin, Bentazone, Metominostrobin, Etoxazole and Permethrin) for various agricultural commodities. MHLW also proposed to newly designate potassium hydrogen carbonate as a food additive. Furthermore, MHLW proposes to delist 3-Acetyl-2,5-dimethylfuran (ADF) from the approved food additives.
