Marcelo L. Larramendy, Sonia Soloneski
Abstract
<i>Pesticides - Updates on Toxicity, Efficacy and Risk Assessment</i> examines different aspects of pesticides encountered in both anthropogenic and natural environments, and provides valuable information on the toxicity, efficacy and risk assessment of several compounds that can have a negative effect on the health of living species and ecosystems. We hope that the real-life examples from diverse sources provided in this book will extend the appreciation of the complexity of this subject in a way that may stimulate new approaches in relevant fields.
