Many of the pesticides applied to food crops in this country are present in foods and may pose risks to human health. Current regulations are intended to protect the health of the general population by controlling pesticide use. This book explores whether the present regulatory approaches adequately protect infants and children, who may differ from adults in susceptibility and in dietary exposures to pesticide residues. The committee focuses on four major areas: Susceptibility: Are children more susceptible or less susceptible than adults to the effects of dietary exposure to pesticides? Exposure: What foods do infants and children eat, and which pesticides and how much of them are present in those foods? Is the current information on consumption and residues adequate to estimate exposure? Toxicity: Are toxicity tests in laboratory animals adequate to predict toxicity in human infants and children? Do the extent and type of toxicity of some chemicals vary by species and by age? Assessing risk: How is dietary exposure to pesticide residues associated with response? How can laboratory data on lifetime exposures of animals be used to derive meaningful estimates of risk to children? Does risk accumulate more rapidly during the early years of life? This book will be of interest to policymakers, administrators of research in the public and private sectors, toxicologists, pediatricians and other health professionals, and the pesticide industry.

The annual joint meeting of experts from the Food and Agriculture Organisation and the World Health Organisation was held in September 2001. This purpose of this meeting was to: review data analysis methods for estimating the maximum residue levels arising from pesticide use according to good agricultural practices; and review toxicological and related data for estimating acceptable daily intakes (ADIs) of pesticides for human health. This report presents information on ADIs of a number of pesticides, maximum residue levels, and general principles for the evaluation of pesticides. It provides summaries of the toxicological evaluations of pesticide residues in food, together with the recommendations made by the joint meeting.

The annual Joint Meeting of the FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food and the Environment and WHO Core Assessment Group on Pesticide Residues was held in Geneva, Switzerland from 20 to 29 September 2005. The Panel reviewed pesticide use patterns (good agricultural practice), data on the chemistry and composition of the pesticides and methods of analysis for pesticide residues. The WHO Core Assessment Group reviewed toxicological and related data, and estimated acceptable daily intakes (ADIs) for humans. This report contains information on ADIs, maximum residue levels and general principles for the evaluation of pesticides.

Pesticides are important in modern farming. Without them it would be difficult to produce enormous quantities of food that are required to feed people throughout the world. Our expectation of good quality fruit and vegetables supports the use of pesticides. The consumer now has the choice of avoiding pesticide residues, but at a price: organic food is more expensive to produce and supplies can be unpredictable. In order to ensure that pesticides are used correctly, and to provide information on the food supply, the Working Party on Pesticide Residues (WPPR) samples fruit, vegetables, cereals (including breads), meat and fish (a total of 3230 samples during 1995) and seeks residues of a broad array of pesticides (morre than 100 in some samples). Levels above the maximum residue level are followed up and the reasons for their occurence ascertained with a view to preventing further violation.
