Exposure assessment of the Belgian population to pesticide residues through fruit and vegetable consumption

Abstract

posure assessment of the Belgian population to pesticide residues through fruit and vegetable consumption. Food Additives and Contaminants, 2008, 25 (07) 12screening of pesticide residue exposure was performed by a deterministic approach. 13For most pesticide residues studied, the exposure was hundred times lower than the 14 ADI ('acceptable daily inatke'). However, for a high consumer (97.

Risk assessment of the intake of pesticides in Croatian diet

“…In 2005 results of deterministic approach shows that for most pesticide residues studied, the exposure was 100 times lower than the ADI. However, for a high consumer (97.5th percentile of consumption) the intake could reach 23% of the ADI for imazalil, 15% for chlorpropham, 14% for the dithiocarbamates, 10% for dimethoate and lambda-cyhalothrin, and 9% for chlorpyriphos (Claeys, De Voghel, Schmit, Vromman, & Pussemier, 2008). Similar results were obtained in 2008.…”

Monitoring and dietary exposure assessment of pesticide residues in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) in Hainan, China

“…There is no relationship between the MRL and ADI or ARfD for the compound. The MRL is a product limit and based on the application of pesticides to crops according to good agricultural practices (GAP) in controlled field experiments, whereas ADI and ARfD are based on toxicological data and insights (Claeys, De Voghel, Schmit, Vromman, & Pussemier, 2008).…”

Consumer Risk Assessment Associated with Intake of Pesticide Residues in Food of Plant Origin from the Retail Market in Poland

“…Monitoring of pesticide residues in food products is necessary to ensure food safety and to strengthen confidence of consumers that food they eat everyday does P. Struciński et al not constitute threat for their health (Claeys et al 2008;. By providing information about the actual levels of pesticide residues in food it allows risk managing authorities to modify so far accepted good agricultural practices (GAPs) in order to reduce the rate of Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) violations or to change these values Struciński et al 2007).…”
