2 DETAILS VAN DE AANVRAAG
2.1 Aanvraag
Het betreft een aanvraag tot uitbreiding van het gebruiksgebied van het middel Orvego
(13317 N), een middel op basis van de werkzame stoffen ametoctradin en dimethomorf. Het
middel is bij besluit van 29 april 2010 reeds toegelaten als schimmelbestrijdingsmiddel door
middel van een gewasbehandeling in de teelt van aardappelen, bedekte teelt van sla en
veldsla. Het middel is bij dit besluit toegelaten tot 31 oktober 2014. Met onderliggende
aanvraag wordt toelating als schimmelbestrijdingsmiddel door middel van een
gewasbehandeling in de onbedekte teelt van prei gevraagd.
2.2 Informatie met betrekking tot de stof
De werkzame stof ametoctradin is goedgekeurd krachtens Verordening (EG) No 1107/2009
(Uitvoeringsverordening (EU) No 200/2013 d.d. 1 augustus 2013).
De werkzame stof dimethomorf is per 1 oktober 2007 geplaatst op Annex I van
gewasbeschermingsrichtlijn 91/414/EEG (Richtlijn 07/25/EC, d.d 23 april 2007). De stof is
goedgekeurd krachtens Verordening (EG) No 1107/2009 (Uitvoeringsverordening (EU) No
540/2011 d.d. 25 mei 2011).
2.3 Karakterisering van het middel
Orvego is geformuleerd als een suspensie concentraat en bevat 300 g/l ametoctradin en 225
g/l dimethomorf.
Ametoctradin behoort tot de groep pyrimidylaminen. Ameoctradin vermindert de hoeveelheid
ATP in de doelschimmel door het binden en voorkomen van binding van complex III van de
ademhalingsketting in de mitochondria. Ametoctradin beïnvloedt de de sporulatie van
oömyceten. De stof is niet systemisch.
Dimethomorf behoort tot de ciannamic acid derivaten. Dimethomorf verstoort de vorming van
de celwand van de schimmel. Het kan tot de afbraak van de celwand leiden en tot de dood van
de cel van de schimmel. Dimethomorf heeft een werking op alle stadia van de levencyclus van
de schimmel, behalve op de sporulatie.
2.4 Voorgeschiedenis
De aanvraag is op 13 februari 2014 ontvangen; op 21 februari 2014 zijn de verschuldigde
aanvraagkosten ontvangen. Bij brief d.d. 19 juni 2014 is de aanvraag in behandeling genomen.

3. Methods of analysis
3.1 Analytical methods in technical material and plant protection product
The analytical methods for the technical material and the plant protection product do not
change.
3.2 Residue analytical methods
The proposed extension for use involves application on crops that can be extrapolated from
the current authorisation based on their crop group (matrix) and their MRL. Therefore, the
proposed extension remains within the existing risk envelope for the section residue
analytical methods for food/feed of plant and animal origin.
The residue analytical methods for air, soil and water were accepted during the assessment
which led to the original authorization of Orvego. This simplified extension does not give rise
to re-assess these residue analytical methods.
3.3
Conclusion
The proposed extension for use is covered by the risk envelope of the existing authorisation
for the section residue analytical methods.
4. Mammalian toxicology
The proposed extension for use involves an application on a crop for which the risk
assessment can be extrapolated from the current authorisation based on the method of
application and dosage (mechanical downward application with a maximum dosage of
0.7L/ha with a minimum spray volume of 200 L/ha). Therefore, the proposed extension
remains within the existing risk envelope for the section mammalian toxicology (operator,
bystander and worker).

Ametoctradin
Metabolism of ametoctradin was investigated in lettuce, potato and tomato. Ametoctradin
was the main metabolite detected in lettuce and tomato. In mature potato tubers the parent
compound was detected in low amounts: 3,6%TRR. Main metabolites detected were
metabolite M650F03 (40% TRR) and M650F04 (27%TRR).
Dimethomorph
Metabolism of dimethomorph was investigated in grapes, tomatoes, potatoes and lettuce.
The metabolic pattern is similar in all studied crops.
The degradation of dimethomorph was limited. At harvest, the unchanged parent compound
represented the major portion of the radioactive residues in all investigated plants (86.5 % –
83 % of the TRR in grapes and grape leaves, respectively; 93 % of the TRR in lettuce; 70.5
% of the TRR in potato green matter with very low TRR in potato tubers: 0.056 mg/kg and
0.003 mg/kg in tuber peels and peeled tubers, respectively). Only relatively small amounts of
metabolites were detected; none of them is expected to contribute significantly to the
toxicological burden.
5.1.2 Metabolism in livestock
Ametoctradin
Metabolism of ametoctradin was investigated in ruminants and poultry (laying hens and
lactating goats). In poultry the most abundant residues were the parent compound
ametoctradin and metabolite M650F01. In goats the parent compound was not detected and
metabolites M650F01 and M650F06 were the main residues.
During the metabolism studies, the animals were dosed with ametoctradin (BAS 650F), while
if animals are exposed to the rotational crops metabolites, M650F03 and M650F04 could be
present as possible residues. It was concluded during the peer review (EFSA Journal
2012;10 11:2921) that the behaviour of metabolites M650F03 and M650F04 could be
addressed by the available animal studies due to structural similarity to the parent compound
and metabolites M650F01 and M650F06, and additional studies with metabolites M650F03
and M650F04 in animals are not necessary.
Dimethomorph
Metabolism of dimethomorph was investigated in laying hens and lactating goats. The study
in the laying hens showed that dimethomorph was rapidly eliminated. The parent compound
dimethomorph was present in fat, gizzard, skin and excreta. Other metabolites were also
identified: Z67/Z69 in liver, kidney, muscle; WL 376084 in yolks, muscle, heart, gizzard and
excreta; CUR 7216 in yolks; and Z43 in yolks, plasma and kidney.
In the goat studies, the parent compound was a major residue identified in plasma, kidney,
liver, heart, muscle and fat. Additionally, metabolites Z67/Z69 were identified in liver, kidney
and bile, WL376084 in kidney, Z43 in bile. In milk metabolite CUR 7117 was identified as a
main metabolite.
5.1.3 Residue definition (plant and animal)
Ametoctradin
In plants the residue definition for risk assessment differs for primary and succeeding crops.
In primary crops the residue definition is ametoctradin (BAS 650F), in rotational crops: sum
of BAS 650F, M650F03, M650F04, expressed as BAS 650F. For monitoring the residue
definition is parent compound BAS 650F in all crops.
The residue definition for animal is not set and it is also not necessary for the requested use.
Page 11
Dimethomorph
In plants the residue definition for monitoring is parent compound dimethomorph. For risk
assessment the residue definition is parent compound dimethomorph, valid only for
application by foliar spray, which covers the requested use in this application.
In animals the residue definition for risk assessment and monitoring is dimethomorph (for
poultry and milk this is to be considered as a default residue definition).
5.1.4 Stability of residues
Ametoctradin
Stability of ametoctradin was previously evaluated in the DAR. It was shown that
ametoctradin (BAS 650F) is stable in watery matrices (2 years in potato tuber and 3 years in
tomato fruit) and for 2 years in dry matrices (cereal grain/straw).
Dimethomorph
Dimethomorf is stable up to 24 months in high water content matrices (potatoes, tomatoes,
broccoli, spinach), high acid (grapes), and high oil (rape seed) in frozen conditions (at -18°C).
5.1.5 Supervised residue trials
Ametoctradin
(Leek, cGAP-NL: 2x0.21 kg as/ha, 7 days interval, PHI 7 days)
Dimethomorph
(Leek, cGAP-NL: 2x 0.16 kg as/ha, 7 days interval, PHI 7 days)
Eight supervised trials were performed with ametoctradin (BAS 650F) and dimethomorph in
leek in NEU. The application rate was slightly higher than the proposed cGAP-NL, however,
within 25% difference, which is considered acceptable. At a PHI of 7 days, which is
according to the proposed use in NL, the residue levels are shown in Table R1 and R2. The
current EU-MRL for ametoctradin in leek is 5 mg/kg and for dimethomorph is 1.5 mg/kg. The
MRLs for both active substances are covered by the available trials.
Leek is a major crop, therefore, eight trials are required. There is a sufficient amount of trials
available.

5.1.6 Residues in succeeding crops
Ametoctradin
Metabolism of ametroctradin in succeeding crops was evaluated in the DAR. Rotational
crops (lettuce, white radish, spring wheat) were planted at plant back intervals of 30, 120 and
365 days after treatment (DAT) of bare soil (1.44 kg as/ha). The parent compound
ametoctradin was detected in minor concentrations. In all crops at all plant back intervals
significant concentration of metabolites M650F03 and M650F04 (>0.01 mg/kg) taken up from
soil was detected.
Two field rotational studies were performed. In the first study the active substance was
applied at a rate of 0.96 kg as/ha on bare soil. Rotational crops were planted (wheat, carrot,
Page 12
cauliflower and lettuce) with a plant back interval of 30, 120 and 365 DAT. Residues of both
metabolites in succeeding crops were highest at 30 DAT. Residues of metabolite M650F03
at other plant back intervals were <0.015 mg/kg. Residues of metabolite M650F04 in crops
planted 120 DAT were ≤0.01 mg/kg and in crops planted at 365 DAT residues were 0.029
mg/kg in wheat straw, 0.016 mg/kg in cauliflower and ≤0.01 mg/kg in other edible crops.
In the second study the active substance was applied at a rate of 0.96 kg as/ha on bare soil
and at 120 DAT winter wheat was planted. In all plant parts parent compound was below
LOQ (0.01 mg/kg). In mature grain metabolite M650F03 ranged from <0.01 to 0.013 mg/kg
and in straw 0.016-0.135 mg/kg. Metabolite M650F04 was present in grain in concentration
<0.01-0.3 mg/kg and in straw 0.01-1.01 mg/kg. It was concluded in the EFSA Reasoned
Opinion (EFSA Journal 2012;10(6):2771) that significant residues of ametoctradin and its
metabolites M650F03 and M650F04 are not likely to occur in rotational/succeeding crops
provided that ametoctradin is used on leek according to proposed GAP. Furthermore, the
defended GAP in this Reasoned Opinion is more critical than the GAP of the current
application.
Dimethomorph
Metabolism of dimethomorph in succeeding crops was evaluated in the DAR. The parent
compound and metabolites Z67 and Z69 were identified in small amounts (up to 0.04 mg/kg).
Four field trials were conducted with rotational crops (carrot, spinach and beans) sowed
within 30 days after the last application of dimethomorph on potatoes (3x 0.18 kg as/ha). In
general, the residues of dimethomorph were below the LOQ (0.01 mg/kg), however, in some
samples (dry beans, early harvest of carrot of spinach) residues could be detected above the
LOQ. The highest residue was detected in spinach: 0.09 mg/kg at 72 days after the last
treatment.
The intended use of the current application for extension of authorisation is within the risk
envelope of the existing authorisation regarding rotational crops. Therefore, no further
evaluation is required.
5.1.7 Residues from livestock feeding studies
Ametoctradin
The requested crop of the current application for authorisation is not used as feed for
animals, therefore, livestock feeding studies are not required. With respect to possible
residues resulting from rotational crops which might be used as feed for animals, it was
concluded in the EFSA Reasoned Opinion (EFSA Journal 2012;10(6):2771) that significant
residues of ametoctradin and its metabolites M650F03 and M650F04 are not likely to occur
in rotational/succeeding crops provided that ametoctradin is used on leek according to
proposed GAP. Furthermore, the defended GAP in this Reasoned Opinion is more critical
than the GAP of the current application.
Dimethomorph
The requested crop is not used as feed for animals, therefore, livestock feeding studies are
not required in this application. However, a livestock feeding study in lactating cow is
evaluated in the DAR. Dimethomorph and its metabolites (Z67/Z69, CUR 7117) were found
below LOQ (0.02mg/kg) in all matrices, except in liver at the highest dose (high overdose:
250x).
Page 13
5.1.8 Processing factors
Ametoctradin
Ametoctradin was shown to be stable under representative food processing conditions.
Additional processing studies are not required, since the TMDI of leek is below the trigger
value of 10% ADI.
Dimethomorph
Dimethomorph is hydrolytically stable under processing conditions (sterilization, baking,
brewing, boiling and pasteurisation). For the available processing factors (for grapes and
hopes) reference can be made to the List of Endpoints presented above. Further processing
studies are not required for the current application.
5.1.9 Calculation of the ADI and the ARfD
Ametoctradin
Calculation of the ADI
The ADI is based on the NOAEL of 1000 mg/kg bw/d based on an overall NOAEL (1000
mg/kg bw/d). Application of a safety factor for inter- and intraspecies differences of 100
results in an ADI of 10 mg/kg bw/day (see the List of Endpoints for mammalian toxicology).
No ARfD is derived, since ametoctradin has no acute toxic properties.
Dimethomorph
Calculation of the ADI
The ADI is based on the NOAEL of 5 mg/kg bw/d in the one year dog study. Application of a
safety factor for inter- and intraspecies differences of 100 results in an ADI of 0,05 mg/kg
bw/day (see the List of Endpoints for mammalian toxicology).
Calculation of the ARfD
The ARfD is based on the NOAEL of 60 mg/kg bw/d in the rat developmental study.
Application of a safety factor for inter- and intraspecies differences of 100 results in an ARfD
of 0,6 mg/kg bw/day (see the List of Endpoints for mammalian toxicology).

5.3
Consumer risk assessment
Ametoctradin (BAS 650F)
Risk assessment for chronic exposure through diet
A calculation of the Theoretical Maximum Daily Intake (TMDI) was carried out using EFSA
PRIMo rev. 2.0, containing all available Member State diets, and the temporary EU-MRLs.
The maximum TMDI is 0.6 % of the ADI for French toddlers. The TMDI is 0.3 % and 0.5 %
of the ADI for the Dutch general population and Dutch children ages 1-6, respectively.
During the peer review, an open point was identified: to update the risk assessment with
intake of M650F03 and M650F04 via rotational plants. Additionally, a potential for dietary
intake of both metabolites through drinking water was taken into consideration. This issues
were addressed by RMS The Netherlands in an Addendum to the DAR (March 2012). It was
concluded that no risk is expected for consumers due to consumption of residues via
rotational crops and drinking water.
Page 14
As no ARfD was derived for ametoctradin, a risk assessment for acute exposure was not
performed.
Dimethomorph
Risk assessment for chronic exposure through diet
A calculation of the Theoretical Maximum Daily Intake (TMDI) was carried out using EFSA
PRIMo rev. 2.0, containing all available Member State diets, and the harmonized EU-MRLs.
The maximum TMDI is 44 % of the ADI for WHO Cluster diet B. The TMDI is 20,3 % and
29,6 % of the ADI for the Dutch general population and Dutch children ages 1-6,
respectively.
Risk assessment for acute exposure through diet
A calculation of the Estimated Short Term Intake (ESTI) was carried out using EFSA PRIMo
rev. 2.0 and the harmonised EU-MRLs . The highest percentage of the ESTI is 14,7 % of the
ARfD for leek for the Belgium adult. ESTI values for the other commodities in all other
consumer diets are all lower.
Conclusion
Based on the assessment for residues, no risk for the consumer due to the exposure to
ametoctradin and dimethomorph is currently expected.
The product complies with the Uniform Principles
6. Environmental fate and behaviour
Conclusion for environmental aspects persistence in soil and leaching to
groundwater, emission to surface water and sediment, drinking water criterion and
monitoring data
The new uses of Orvego applied for in leek have an equal (or lower) risk for persistence in
soil, leaching to groundwater, and emission to surface water and sediment as the already
authorised uses. The drinking water criterion is met.
The available and most recent monitoring data in groundwater and surface water have been
reviewed and have no consequences for the proposed uses.
7. Ecotoxicology
Conclusion with respect to comparability for ecotoxicological aspects
The risk of the applied use in leek is equal to or lower than the risk of the authorised uses
with regard to the environment for the aspects birds and mammals, aquatic organisms, bees,
non-target arthropods, soil organisms, non-target plants and activated sludge.
8. Efficacy
The uses applied for are minor uses. According article 51 of Regulation no.1107/2009 no
efficacy data is needed.
9. Conclusion
The product complies with the Uniform Principles.
