In the absence of toxicological data for this molecule, it is not possible to establish a specific GSV and conclude on the health risks associated with the presence of this metabolite in EDCH.<\/p>\n<p>The ANSES Working Group concluded that:<br \/>\n&#8211; The evaluation carried out on the basis of the available data indicates that there is no health risk associated with the presence of Diclofenac at known exposure doses in EDCH in France<br \/>\n&#8211; No toxicological data are available for 4&#8242;-hydroxydiclofenac. The quantitative assessment of the health risk associated with this metabolite could not be performed and it is not possible to establish a specific guide value.<\/p>\n<p>ANSES recalls that diclofenac is monitored in surface waters in metropolitan France and in the overseas departments and in groundwater in metropolitan France under the decree of 7 August 2015 amending the decree of 25 January 2010 establishing the water status monitoring programme.<\/p>\n<p>Please be aware that our R&amp;D department is in the process of finalising a new method for the analysis of drug residues in fresh water.<\/p>\n<p>For any information, do not hesitate to contact us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[hover_box image=&#8221;\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/eaux-douces-e1539612227646.jpg&#8221; image_hover=&#8221;\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/drapeau_france.jpg&#8221; link=&#8221;&#8221; target=&#8221;&#8221;] &nbsp; The ANSES recently published an opinion on the assessment&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":5639,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-regulatory-watch"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
