This scientific opinion of EFSA deals with the risk assessment of the biocide 5‐chloro‐2‐methyl‐2H‐isothiazol‐3‐one, mixture with 2‐methyl‐2H‐isothiazol‐3‐one (3:1), with CAS No. 55965‐84‐9, REF. No. 43730 for which the CEF Panel concluded that there is no safety concern for the consumer if the maximum residual amount in the finished products does not exceed 25 µg/dm² and the use of the mixture does not result in an anti‐microbial effect at the surface of the polymer or on the food itself.
