There are chapters on each of the main groups of insecticides, namely organochlorines, anticholinesterases and pyrethrins and pyrethroids. The book also covers fungicides and herbicides, as well as more specialised agents such as microbial pesticides. The risks and hazards to humans are considered, both occupational and through the consumption of contaminated foodstuffs. Additionally, clinical aspects of pesticide poisoning are discussed.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The possibility of harm from pesticide exposure has led to the development of national and international regulations governing the application of pesticides. The book describes the regulatory systems in three major economic areas: the North American Free Trade Area (USA, Canada and Mexico), the European Union and Japan.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This book should be of interest to all individuals working on the development and application of pesticides anywhere in the world.

Untersucht werden Pestizide nach Gruppen (z. B. Insektizide und Fungizide), ihre Rückstände in Lebensmitteln sowie die Metabolisierung von Pestiziden. Darüber hinaus werden berufsbezogene Aspekte und die Behandlung von Vergiftungserscheinungen umfassend diskutiert. \"Pesticide Toxicology\" ist das erste einbändige Werk zum Thema Pestizide, das spezialisierte und dennoch umfassende Informationen sowohl für Experten als auch für Doktoranden bereit hält. Herausgeber Timothy Marrs ist ein international anerkannter Experte in der Pestizidforschung und genießt großes Ansehen auf dem Gebiet der Toxikologie. Geschrieben wurde der Band von einem Team international renommierterToxikologen.
