Riassunto

Resulting from the premier forum for pesticide development and use, this volume provides comprehensive coverage and even captures emerging technologies within the industry. All facets of pesticides are addressed here, including agriculture, agrochemicals, and environmental health aspects, as well as such global issues as food quality and safety.

L'autore:

Hideo Ohkawa holds the chair of Agrochemicals and Biotechnology at Kobe University, Japan. Prior to his academic appointment, he spent almost 20 years working in the agrochemical division of Sumitomo Chemical Corp.
Professor Ohkawa has edited several books on agrochemicals and is the chairman of the organizing committee of the 2006 IUPAC Congress on Pesticide Chemistry.

Hisashi Miyagawa heads the laboratory of bioregulation chemistry at the Kyoto University Faculty of Agriculture (Kyoto, Japan). He is the chairman of the scientific committee of the 2006 IUPAC Congress on Pesticide Chemistry.

Philip W. Lee is with the Crop Protection Division of DuPont at Newark, NJ (USA). He has edited the well-known Handbook of Residue Analytical Methods for Agrochemicals.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

While intensive agriculture is critically dependent on pest control, the chemical agents used may be harmful to humans eating the crop, such that pest control must always be accompanied by measures to ensure environmental and health protection.
This integrated view on modern crop protection -- covering science, technology, regulation and economical issues -- contains the proceedings of the 11th IUPAC International Congress of Pesticide Chemistry held in Kobe, in 2006. 50 contributions selected from this premier forum for pesticide development and use cover key aspects in modern pesticide chemistry and technology, including agriculture, agrochemicals, and environmental health aspects, as well as global issues, such as food quality and safety. This comprehensive volume even captures such emerging technologies as crop protection and production, genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics.
Invaluable reading for organic, environmental and food chemists, as well as chemists in industry, agricultural scientists, and those working in the chemical industry.
