2025年4月28日，欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）发布消息称，拟修订苯草醚（aclonifen）在茴香中的最大残留限量。
根据欧盟条例（EC）No 396/2005第6章的规定，Landesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Gartenbau提交了该修订申请。根据风险评估结果，EFSA得出结论，根据所报告的农业实践，短期和长期摄入使用苯草醚产生的残留物不太可能对消费者健康构成风险。部分原文报道如下：
In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Landesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Gartenbau submitted a request to the competent national authority in Germany to modify the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for the active substance aclonifen in anise/aniseed. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive an MRL proposal for the crop of interest. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of aclonifen in the plant matrix under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short-term and long-term intake of residues resulting from the use of aclonifen according to the reported agricultural practice is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
