This volume contains monographs prepared at the fifty-eighth meeting of the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), which met in Rome, Italy, from 21 to 27 February 2002. The toxicological monographs in this volume summarize the safety data on the veterinary drug residues that were evaluated toxicologically by the Committee, which included two anthelminthic agents (doramectin and tiabendazole) and one antimicrobial agent (cefuroxime). The data summarized in these monographs served as the basis for the evaluations performed by the Committee. This volume and others in the WHO F
