Dermal Absorption of Pesticide Residues [PDF]

open access: possibleChemical Research in Toxicology, 2018
Current guidance for dermal exposure assessment of plant protection products typically uses in vitro skin penetration data for the active ingredient when applied as both the concentrated product and relevant spray dilutions thereof. However, typical re-entry scenarios involve potential skin exposure to a "dried residue" of the spray dilution, from ...

Pesticide residues on tobacco

1967
Tobacco is a unique crop with respect to possible contamination by pesticide residues because it is not classified as a food nor a drug and is, therefore, exempt from tolerances by the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of the United States.

Pesticide residues in biological waste

Chemosphere, 2002
The aim of this study was to detect crop protection products (CPP) in single fractions of biological waste and to estimate pesticide concentrations in biological waste, depending on its composition. The composition of biological waste was determined from the literature, which provided information on its local and seasonal variability.

Pesticide Residues: Organochlorines

2014
Organochlorinated pesticides, such as dichlorodiphenylethanes, hexachlorocyclohexanes, cyclodienes, hexachlorobenzene, chlordecone, and mirex, are persistent lipophilic compounds that tend to bioaccumulate in food chain. Because of their high vapor pressure, they may be transported long distances by air currents.

Pesticides in Perspective; Pesticide residues in food

Journal of Environmental Monitoring, 2000
Consumers are becoming more concerned about food contaminants; pesticide residues feature high in their list of worries. In this overview an attempt is made to put these concerns in perspective. Food monitoring and human exposure data are used to illustrate what regulators are doing to ensure that the food we eat is safe.

Pesticide Residues: Dithiocarbamates

2014
Dithiocarbamates are synthetic organic compounds containing sulfur and often a sulfur-bound metal, some of which are used to protect fruits and vegetables from fungal infections. Exposure of the general population results from occasional residues in foodstuff.

Pesticide residues in Canada

1968
Under the terms of the Food and Drugs Act of Canada, an Act enforced by the Food and Drug Directorate of the Department of National Health and Welfare, “No person shall sell a food which has in or upon it any poisonous or harmful substance.” A pesticide, because of its purpose, is toxic to some form of life, whether it be an insect, a fungus, a rodent,

Pesticides, pesticide residues, tolerances, and the law (U.S.A.)

1971
Until the latter part of the 1950–1960 decade, pesticide, residue, and tolerance (the last two terms in the connotative sense of pesticides) were words primarily limited to the vocabulary of those involved in agricultural pursuits and small groups of specialists within the confines of the University academe.

Pesticide Residues in Marketed Sesame

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1998
Pesticides are chemicals used to enhance food production. While this factor remains important in the food industry, pesticides are also known to induce toxic effects in humans and animals. This, in part, is due to their stability in food processing (Dewailly et al. 1993; Gunn and Stevens 1976).

Pesticide Residues in Plants

1973
Much of the recent literature on various aspects of pesticide1 residues associated with plants has been thoroughly and critically reviewed. Amongst the outstanding reviews are those on persistent pesticides by Robinson (1970); on pesticides in people by Wassermann et al.
