Gerhard Eigenbrod From: Jean-Marc Renaud To: Mr G. Eigenbrod Subject:
Tobacco-Brazil: Analytical results Dear Mr. Eigenbrod, 

Below please find the pesticide residues found on 20 tobacco samples
intended to be exported to Brazil. Residues when detected were below
the Brazilian maximum permitted limits, except fro lot 11579 with
DDT residues of 0.77 ppm. Moreover, significant residues of DDT were
found in lots 00110 (0.29 ppm) and 04245 (0.17 ppm). Considering the
possible variability due to different sampling protocols, we consider
that both samples present a risk of being "over tolerance" in case
of control by custom authorities. In case you have any question, please
do not hesitate to contact me. 

Best regards, J.M. Renaud
