In the case of certain study types, the use of a representative plant protection product instead of the active substance as manufactured may be more appropriate, for example testing of non-target arthropods, bees, earthworm reproduction, soil micro-flora and non-target terrestrial plants. In the case of certain plant protection product types (for example encapsulated suspension) testing with the plant protection product is more appropriate to testing with active substance when these organisms will be exposed to the plant protection product itself. For plant protection products where the active substance is always intended to be used together with a safener and/or synergist and/or in conjunction with other active substances, plant protection products containing these additional substances shall be used.
