“…Correlation coefficients were -0.85 and -0.81 for log concentration with linear time and log concentration with log time, respectively. Decker et al (1950) measured toxaphene and DDT residues on fruit tree leaves for a period of time after a spray treatment. From their results, we determined regression equation half-lives.…”

“…Previous work relating temperature with loss of activity of persistent insecticides (Burgess & Sweetman, 1949;Teotia & Dahm, 1950;Mistric & Gaines, 1953;Burt & Ward, 1955) suggests that high temperatures may materially accelerate the rate of loss of DDT when it is applied as an insecticide to a variety of surfaces. Decker, Weinman & Bann (1950) concluded that there is a positive correlation between the vapour pressures of insecticides and their rates of loss from crops, which also suggests a connection between temperature and rate of loss of activity.…”

“…As early as 1950, it was shown that certain factors had a marked effect on the persistence of pesticide residues deposited on various forage crops (DEcKER et al 1950). Also, in 1952, BANN extended these studies to obtain additional information (BANN 1952).…”

PrefaceThat residues of pesticides and other "foreign" chemicals in foodsttrlfs are of concern to everyone everywhere is attested by the reception accorded earlier volumes of "Residue Reviews", and by the gratifying enthusiasm, sincerity, and efforts shown by the individuals I have asked to prepare manuscripts. Many manuscripts on residue a;ffairs are in preparation, but the field is so large and the non-polemical interests in it so varied that the editor and the Advisory Board will welcome suggestions for topics considered suitable and timely for review in this international book-series. There can be no serious question that pesticide and food-additive chemicals are essential to adequate food production, manufacture, marketing, and storage, yet without continuing surveillance and intelligent control some of those that persist could at times conceivably endanger the public health.The object of "Residue Reviews" is to provide concise, critical reviews of timely advances, philosophy, and significant areas of accomplished or needed endeavor in the total field of residues of these chemicals in foods, in feeds, and in transformed food products. These reviews are either general or specific, but properly they may lie in the domains of analytical chemistry and its methodology, biochemistry, human and animal medicine, legislation, pharmacology, physiology, regulation, and toxicology; certain affairs in the realm of food technology that are concerned specifically with pesticide and other food-additive problems are also appropriate subject matter. The justification for the preparation of any review for this book-series is that it deals with some aspect of the many real problems arising from the presence of residues of foreign chemicals in foodstuffs.Material for "Residue Reviews" encompasses those matters, in any country, which are involved in allowing pesticide and other plant-protecting chemicals to be used safely in producing, storing, and shipping crops. Added plant or animal pest-control chemicals or their metabolites that may persist into meat and other edible animal products (milk and milk products, eggs, etc.) are also residues and are within this scope. The so-called food additives (suhstances deliberately added to foods for flavor, odor, appearance, etc., as weIl as those inadvertently added durin...
