The presence of harmful pesticide residues in food has caused a great concern among the consumers. Hence, world over ...
متن کاملSelection of Food Safety Standards
This paper examines performance versus process standards modeling the variability of industry-level compliance and therefore food safety. Monte Carlo simulations are conducted manipulating four factors: the variances of input use of efficient and inefficient firms, the proportion of inefficient firms in the industry and the policymakers' level of risk aversion. Results suggest that process stan...
متن کاملResidue Levels and Risk Assessment of Pesticides in Pistachio Nuts in Iran
Background: Pistachio is one of the main nutrients, not only as a strategic crop but also as a main type of nut, in Iranians’ food cycle. The aim of this study was to measure the relative safety of Iranian pistachio based on the standard pesticide’s residue limits, which should be monitored and assessed in the cultivation of pistachio in order to confirm its public health. Method...
متن کاملSafety Evaluation of Pesticide Residues in Food
Catalytic antibodies: Like enzyme nomenclature, it is proposed that the nomenclature of catalytic antibodies should be based on the reaction catalysed, rather than on structural features. As more than one different ‘abzyme’ catalysing the same general reaction may be produced, there is clearly a possibility for confusion. However, the catalytic behaviour and specificities may not be identical. ...
متن کاملFood Safety: Setting and Enforcing Standards
In December 2001, the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a Texas district court decision blocking the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) from closing a beef processing plant that had failed a series of Salmonella tests. This court ruling is the latest development in the evolution of food safety policy for meats and poultry. Over the last decade, the federal government has ad...
