Abstract
The primary objectives of this paper are (1) to review the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) current regulatory requirements related to bound pesticide residues including a discussion of the problems this Agency faces in assessing the regulatory significance of these residues and (2) to suggest specific procedures and/or criteria for (a) the differentiation of bound residues and natural constituents and (b) determining whether bound residues need to be considered as part of the total toxic residue.
This paper was presented in part at the Symposium on Non-Extractable Pesticide Residues: Characteristics, Biovailability and Toxicological Significance, 188th Nat. Meeting, Amer. Chem. Soc., Philadelphia, PA, Aug. 26–31, 1984
