| Tolerances |
A tolerance of 0.05 part per million is established for negligible residues of monensin in the edible tissues of cattle and goats. A tolerance for residues of monensin in chickens, turkeys and quail is not needed. The tolerance for residues of bacitracin from zinc bacitracin or bacitracin methylene disalicylate in uncooked edible tissues of cattle, swine, chickens, turkeys, pheasants, and quail, and in milk and eggs is 0.5 part per million |
