IPRODIONE (111)

EXPLANATION

Iprodione, originally evaluated by the JMPR in 1977 and re-evaluated for residues in 1980, is
included in the CCPR periodic review programme. Re-evaluation (ALINORM 89/24A, para 298;
Appendix V and VI) was originally scheduled for 1992 but postponed because of the work-load and
the late submission of some of the data.

Codex Maximum Residue Limits (CXLs) exist for apple, beans (dry), cucumber, black, red
and white currants, garlic, grapes, kiwifruit, head lettuce, bulb onion, peach, pear, sweet peppers,
plums, raspberries, husked rice, strawberry, tomato and witloof chicory.

The Meeting reviewed information from the manufacturer in response to the 1977 requests
(repeated in 1980), as well as information on GAP and residue trials on other commodities.
Additional information was submitted by The Netherlands, Spain, New Zealand, Canada and
Germany.

Crop residues

Citrus fruits (Table 2). Data were available from spraying trials in Japan, New Zealand and Israel.

In post-harvest trials in Italy fruits were dipped once for 20 seconds in a suspension of Rovral
WP50. Residues were about 0.7-1 mg/kg and 0.4-0.6 mg/kg after, respectively, 10-60 days and 120-
180 days of storage at -12°C.

Blackberries. Iprodione residue trials were carried out 1986 in Oregon (USA) on blackberries with
Rovral WP50. The rate of application was 1.1 kg ai/ha. Five applications were made with the first
two in the bloom stage and the remainder at bi-weekly intervals thereafter with the last application
on the day of harvest. The results are summarized in Table 11.

Kiwifruit. Treatment by post-harvest dip or spray. In a post-harvest residue trial in Australia (1989),
mature fruits were dipped in Rovral WP 50 at 500 and 1000 mg/l for 30 seconds before being
packed in commercial kiwifruit trays with polyethylene liners and cool-stored at 20°C. Residue
analyses on pulp and whole fruit did not show a consistent decrease with increased withholding
period (0 to 14 days). The residue of iprodione at 500 mg/l in the whole fruit was less than 10
mg/kg, but at 1000 mg/l was up to 13 mg/kg. At both rates the residue in the pulp was 1 mg/kg
(Anon., 1990).

In New Zealand (1988), post-harvest application of Rovral Flo by means of a "Singulator"

spray apparatus at a rate of 1.5 ml/l resulted in a mean iprodione residue level of 1.36 mg/kg on a
whole-fruit basis and 0.05 mg/kg in the pulp. Residue levels in the whole fruit were significantly
lower, and those in the pulp somewhat lower, than those from post-harvest dipping (Heffernan,
1990).

Chinese cabbage. Table 21. Residue trials on Chinese cabbage were conducted in the USA in 1984
and 1986. From two to five post-emergence applications were made with Rovral WP50, at rates of
0.5 and 1.1 kg ai/ha/application.

In Denmark, at one site during 1980, Chinese cabbage was sprayed once to run-off with an
aqueous suspension of Rovral WP50 containing 0.5 g ai/l. A trial was carried out in Germany
(1978) with four treatments at 0.5 kg ai/ha.
