Analytical Methods for Pesticide Residues

Abstract

A review of literature published in 2011 on analytical methods for pesticides are presented here in six sections: extraction methods, chromatographic or mass spectrometric techniques, spectrophotometric techniques, fluorescence methods, biochemical assays and immunoassays, and review articles. Because many of the research studies in the cited publications utilized more than one analytical method, the different sections should not be thought of as being mutually exclusive.
