Derived tolerance values for selected active pharmaceutical ingredients in drinking water
Description
Certain foreign substances such as active pharmaceutical ingredients and their metabolites are not covered by the Drinking Water Ordinance and are therefore referred to as so-called unregulated foreign substances. For a few of these substances, tolerance values are already available, which are considered to be the highest tolerable concentration in drinking water. In order to be able to better evaluate analytical measurement results in drinking water, Federal Environment Agency experts have derived tolerance values for a number of additional active pharmaceutical ingredients. These tolerance values are based on toxicological values such as the acceptable daily intake (ADI). In total, 90 active pharmaceutical ingredients or their metabolites have derived tolerance values in drinking water for infants and adults. The report documents methodology and results.
