As per the Registration Guide: to demonstrate product safety the number of metals analyses required at the time of new registration or re-registration corresponds to the total number of batches/lots of product manufactured within a three (3) year interval preceding the submission of an application for a new or re-registration. The required number of sample analyses are listed in the table below.
| # of Batches/Lots* produced within a 3 year period | # of Sample analyses required (one analysis per individual batch) |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 to 4 | 2 |
| 5 to 9 | 3 |
| 10 to 16 | 4 |
| 17 to 25 | 5 |

*See Section 3.6.17 for more detailed information on Batch/Lot numbers. The analyses must include the following eleven (11) elements: As, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Pb, Hg, Mo, Ni, Se and Zn. In addition to submitting the required results of analyses, the following validation studies are required when submitting 2 or more sets of analyses: % acceptable recovery, analytical range, limit of quantitation (LOQ), limit of detection (LOD) and % coefficient of variation (CV) repeatability. Each analysis report must bear the signature of the analyst and must be printed on laboratory letterhead. In addition, product samples must be taken either at regular time intervals or intervals that correspond to the actual batch manufacture in order to assess consistency in production.
Please also indicate the number of batches/lots produced within the three (3) year period preceding the file submission (used to determine the number of metal analyses required).
