欧盟就吡丙醚的农药风险评估同行评审数据发布结论
据欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，8月21日欧盟食品安全局就吡丙醚（pyriproxyfen）的农药风险评估同行评审数据发布结论。
据了解，起初先是由荷兰对吡丙醚（pyriproxyfen）的农药风险进行了同行评审，在此基础上欧盟食品安全局得出了评定结论。在评审过程中，吡丙醚作为农药用于番茄、茄子、棉花。
经过评估发现，吡丙醚及其代谢物对水生生物的风险较低。对蜜蜂的风险评估尚不完善，有待进一步研究。
部分原文报道如下：
The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority （EFSA） following the peer review of the initial risk assessment carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State the Netherlands for the pesticide active substance pyriproxyfen are reported.
Based on the submitted confirmatory data, a low risk to aquatic organisms including insects was indicated for both pyriproxifen and the pertinent metabolite DPH-PYR for all the representative uses. The risk to pollinators from the insect growth regulator mode of action needs to be addressed further for greenhouse uses on tomato and aubergine in Southern Europe, as the submitted field study was not considered appropriate for the risk assessment for bees.
