About this book

That residues of pesticide and other "foreign" chemicals in food­ stuffs are of concern to everyone everywhere is amply attested by the reception accorded previous volumes of "Residue Reviews" and by the gratifying enthusiasm, sincerity, and efforts shown by all the in­dividuals from whom manuscripts have been solicited. Despite much propaganda to the contrary, there can never be any serious question that pest-control chemicals and food-additive chemicals are essential to adequate food production, manufacture, marketing, and storage, yet without continuing surveillance and intelligent control some of those that persist in our foodstuffs could at times conceivably endanger the public health. Ensuring safety-in-use of these many chemicals is a dynamic challenge, for established ones are continually being dis­placed by newly developed ones more acceptable to food tech­nologists, pharmacologists, toxicologists, and changing pest-control requirements in progressive food-producing economies.These matters are of genuine concern to increasing numbers of governmental agencies and legislative bodies around the world, for some of these chemicals have resulted in a few mishaps from improper use. Adequate safety-in-use evaluations of any of these chemicals per­sisting into our foodstuffs are not simple matters, and they incorporate the considered judgments of many individuals highly trained in a variety of complex biological, chemical, food technological, medical, pharmacological, and toxicological disciplines.

About the editor

Francis Alan Gunther served the University of California for the whole of his professional life. He spent a career of 44 years as a leader in the development of analytical methods for pesticide residues and in the determination of the physical and chemical fates of pesticides and related chemical residues in the environment. While so doing, he developed and directed what was indeed a national and international center of research on these subjects.
