Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pesticide residues and metabolites occur in the majority of agricultural products and water as a result of the use of plant protection products against pest and diseases; thus, the estimation of dietary exposure is an important aspect of ensuring consumer safety. The accurate estimation of dietary exposure is essential for a robust and reliable risk assessment in the area or pesticides either for regulatory or research purposes, resulting in extended development in the field. To capture these trends, we are pleased to invite you to submit articles to this Special Issue on “Dietary Exposure at the Farm Level: Pesticide Residues and Their Metabolites”.
This Special Issue aims to capture advances in the area or dietary exposure for pesticide residues from farm to fork. Articles should address the residue behavior of pesticides in the field in combination with dietary exposure estimations using novel tools and approaches. Finally, articles addressing both hazard and exposure of pesticides such as mixture selection, hazard characterization, cumulative exposure from multiple residues, and regulatory aspects linked to pesticide residues are encouraged to be submitted.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not be limited to) the following:
- Fate of pesticide residues in primary and rotational crops;
- Fate of pesticide residues in processing commodities;
- Residues in animal products (including fish) through feed;
- Residues in honey and bee products;
- Exposure of residues through drinking water;
- Chronic and acute exposure to single chemicals;
- Cumulative exposure to different chemicals;
- Regulatory aspects on dietary exposure.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Toxics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
