Resumo(s)
The very deficient information from the
Portuguese Pesticides Regulation Authority
(AFN) and the pesticides suppliers about
toxicological classification of pesticides
has occurred since 2005 and is confirmed
by this study concerning the 306 active ingredients
(a.i.) authorized in 2011. The systematic
smaller number of a.i. with dangerous
toxicological classifications adopted
by AFN in contrast with EFSA is always
present and, in special: in 8 a.i (62%) of 13
most toxic (T, Cat 1, 2, R46, R60, R61) for
EFSA, ignored by AFN; on Acute Toxicity
of 22 a.i. Very Toxic by EFSA but by AFN
only 2 (9%) and of 45 a.i. Toxic with 91%
by EFSA but only 25% by AFN; and in 53
a.i. classified R63, EFTA consider 46 (87%)
and AFN only 29 (55%). It is surprising the
diversity of classification criterions of 124
a.i. of Carcinogenicity (41% of 306 a.i.),
being classified by: EPA – 69%; EFSA –
46%; and AFN – 40%.
