Pesticide Biotransformation and Disposition

Biotransformation of Pesticides is an updated, "one-stop" resource for academic, industry and regulatory scientists involved in research and regulatory activities related to pesticide biotransformation and human health.� This book provides an�in depth look at how pesticides are biotransformed, which is essential to understanding exposure, dose, toxicity and health risks.� This essential reference contains the biotransformation of pesticides from uptake to excretion, including toxicokinetics and emphasizes metabolism in non-target species, including experimental animals and humans.

• Includes four new chapters and expanded material on pesticide biotransformation and disposition, an active area of pesticide toxicology that is becoming increasingly important for human health risk assessment
• Offers a practical and portable guide covering the most up-to-date research results on metabolic transformations of pesticides
• Provides scientists and regulatory researchers with the information they need to conduct accurate risk assessments and make informed decisions on which exposures to study further in human populations
