Peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance ABE-IT 56 (components of lysate of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain DDSF623)

European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) et al. EFSA J. .

Abstract

The conclusions of EFSA following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authority of the rapporteur Member State, France, for the pesticide active substance ABE-IT 56 (components of lysate of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain DDSF623) are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative use of ABE-IT 56 as a fungicide on grapes. The reliable endpoints, appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment, are presented. Missing information identified as being required by the regulatory framework is listed.

Keywords: ABE‐IT 56; Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain DDSF623; fungicide; peer review; pesticide; risk assessment.
