Division I.1.5

Once MRL levels have been derived, the Theoretical Maximum Daily Intake (‘TMDI’) of residues shall be calculated using the standard food basket and assuming that residues are present in all food commodities at the level of the proposed MRLs. The TMDI is calculated by adding exposure to residues from all tissues obtained using the following calculation:

Amount per edible tissue or product = (proposed MRL for the tissue or product x (times) daily consumption of the tissue or product)/(divided by) Ratio of the marker to total residue in the tissue or product.
