In estimating an extraneous maximum residue level the JMPR [Joint Food and Agriculture Organization(FAO)/World Health Organization(WHO) Meeting on Pesticide Residues] attempts to take into account a number of factors. These include the amount of data, the relative importance of the commodity in international trade, the potential for trade difficulties or accounts thereof, the frequency of positive results, a knowledge of the propensity of a particular crop to take up residues, e. g., the uptake of DDT [dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane] by carrots, historical monitoring data... 2, record 2, English, - extraneous%20maximum%20residue%20level

Pesticide monitoring requires highly flexible field and laboratory programs that can respond to periods of pesticide application, which can sample the most appropriate medium(water, sediment, biota), are able to apply detection levels that have meaning for human health and ecosystem protection, and which can discriminate between those pesticides which appear as artifacts of historical use versus those that are in current use. 1, record 3, English, - pesticide%20monitoring

Monitoreo de pesticidas. Pesticidas como el DDT, dialdrin, endrin, lindane, chlordane, heptaclor y otros, pueden entrar en contacto con la microfauna del suelo acarreando la ruptura del ecosistema microbiano, lo cual incidirá en la producción de los cultivos. Por consiguiente es necesaria la detección oportuna de estos componentes, a través de muestras del suelo, obtenidas mediante calicatas específicamente construidas para tal fin y su correspondiente análisis de laboratorio. 1, record 3, Spanish, - monitoreo%20de%20pesticidas
