St. John´s Wort infusion leaves from India
How often official samples of st. john´s wort infusion leaves grown in India break the EU maximum residue level for pesticides, by why the sample was taken.
In 2024, 0 of 129 EU border checks (0%) found a pesticide above the legal limit, while the pair was under increased EU checks (50% of consignments). The year before (2023) it was 1.7% of 119 checks. The substance found above the limit most often was ethylene oxide (2 samples).
EU border checks by year
| Year | Checks | Over the limit | Check frequency in force |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 119 | 1.7% | 50% (Annex I) |
| 2024 | 129 | 0% | 50% (Annex II) |
Checks: consignments sampled at EU border posts under the increased-control regime of Reg. (EU) 2019/1793 and reported to EFSA by the member state that checked them. A percentage is shown only for years with at least 30 checks; below that, the count. "Within uncertainty": above the limit but compliant once the lab's measurement uncertainty is allowed for, not counted as over.
Substances found above the limit
| Substance | Where found | Samples |
|---|---|---|
| Ethylene oxide | border checks | 2 |
The limit applied is the one the lab reported at the time of sampling. Limits change; check the current value in the EU Pesticides Database.
