Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pesticides play vital roles in controlling pests and boosting crop yields. Pesticides are widely used all over the world and may be present in agricultural products. The presence of pesticide residues in agricultural products raises serious health concerns. Understanding the residual fate of pesticides is critical for food safety and human health. In addition, metabolites of pesticides are frequently detected in agricultural products. If pesticide metabolites reach high concentrations in the environment, they may pose long-term risks to terrestrial and aquatic organisms. Some studies have found that pesticides were detected in agricultural products and their processed products. Hence, the quality and safety of agricultural products and their processed products have attracted more and more attention. Therefore, to achieve a deeper understanding of the process effect, the processing experiments were designed to study the fate of pesticides and their metabolites in different processing steps.
