# Commission Regulation (EC) No 429/2008 of 25 April 2008 on detailed rules for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the preparation and the presentation of applications and the assessment and the authorisation of feed additives (Text with EEA relevance), Division 3.1.1: Tolerance studies for the target species

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The aim of the tolerance test is to provide a limited evaluation of short-term toxicity of the additive to the target animals. It is also used to establish a margin of safety, if the additive is consumed at higher doses than recommended. Such tolerance tests must be conducted to provide evidence for safety for each of the target species/animal categories for which a claim is made. In some cases it is acceptable to include some elements of the tolerance test in one of the efficacy trials provided that the requirements given below for these tests are met. All studies reported in this section must be based on the additive described in Section II.
