Instructions

• The process for analysing pesticide residues typically involves extracting the residues, clean-up procedures to remove other components, and an analytical procedure to identify and measure the amount of pesticide residue.
• Analysis of pesticide residues is a highly sensitive procedure requiring extremely accurate solutions. Accurate weighing and dosing of reference standards, as well as dilution with solvents, is therefore critical

Need for the Document

The presence of pesticide residue in the manufacturing process can lead to the steady accumulation of harmful chemical residues entering the food chain. This subsequently leads to a high risk of health impacts on the environment, humans and animals. To minimise the risk of negative health impacts, we need to comply with the relevant guidelines and standards for minimising levels of harmful pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides in the food chain.
