Fish farming is increasingly dependent on plant commodities as a source of feed leading to an increased risk for pesticide residues in aquaculture diets and consequently their transfer into aquaculture food products. The European pesticide regulation requires fish metabolism and fish feeding studies where residues in fish feed exceed 0.1 mg kg(-1) of the total diet (dry weight basis) to enable ...

was elaborated in cooperation with the Member States. It does not intend to produce legally binding effects and by its nature does not prejudice any measure taken by a Member State within the implementation prerogatives under Regulation 1107/2009 or Regulation 396/2005, nor any case law developed with regard to these provisions. This document also does not preclude the possibility that the Euro...

Pesticide residue is a common contamination in the environment and food. Various analytical methods have been developed to detect and analyze the residues. Biosensor is one of the fast detection technologies. In this paper, we reviewed those biosensors according to their unique detection mechanism, fabrication and incorporation with nanomaterials.

This review presents methods for the assessment of acute and chronic risk from pesticide residues in food. Multiple pesticide residues can often be found in food. Currently, there is no internationally accepted procedure for the assessment of cumulative exposure to multiple pesticide residues in food. Therefore, risk assessment is based on toxicological evaluation of single compounds in a food ...
