Food processing a tool to pesticide residue dissipation : A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the common food processing operations along with the degree of residue removal in each process and showed that in most cases processing leads to large reductions in residue levels in the prepared food, particularly through washing, peeling and cooking operations.

Effect of handling and processing on pesticide residues in food- a review
Usha Bajwa,K. S. Sandhu +1 more
TL;DR: There is diversified information available in literature on the effect of preparation, processing and subsequent handling and storage of foods on pesticide residues which has been compiled in this article.
Effects of food processing on pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of response ratios is presented as a possible method of combining and quantifying effects of food processing on pesticide residue levels, which indicated both reduction and increases for the 95% and 99.5% confidence intervals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of food processing on pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables: a meta-analysis approach.
TL;DR: In this paper, a meta-analysis of response ratios was presented as a possible method of combining and quantifying effects of food processing on pesticide residue levels, which indicated that residue levels were indicated by blanching, boiling, canning, frying, juicing, peeling and washing of fruits and vegetables with an average response ratio ranging from 1 0 to 082.

Health impact and damage cost assessment of pesticides in Europe.
TL;DR: This work quantifies health impacts and related damage costs from exposure to 133 pesticides applied in 24 European countries in 2003 adding up to almost 50% of the total pesticide mass applied in that year and identifies 33 substances now banned from the European market according to current legislation.

Regulating pesticides in food
TL;DR: In this article, a National Research Council (NRC) committee has concluded that US laws and regulations governing pesticide residues in food do not adequately protect the public from carcinogenic substances, while forcing federal agencies to strictly limit the use of relatively safe pesticides, these regulations at the same time allow high levels of more dangerous chemicals in several frequently eaten foods.

Pesticide residues and food safety : a harvest of viewpoints
TL;DR: In this article, a variety of experts, including chemists, toxicologists, growers, educators, regulators, food processors and distributors, representatives of consumer groups, and reporters, address the major issues surrounding food safety and pesticide residues.
