The purpose of this issue paper is to highlight current international microbial contaminant criteria on food and drinking water and to promote a dialogue among OECD member countries on the acceptable levels of microbial contamination in microbial pest control products. A compilation of methods available for screening microbial pest control products for the presence of pathogens and other micro-organism contaminants are referenced for guidance to regulatory authorities and applicants/notifiers alike.
