If the world is to determine pesticide residue standards?
     Pesticide residue standards, including pesticide residue limits (ie maximum residue limits), pesticide residues and other standard detection methods, direct relationship with consumers is the largest food or edible agricultural pesticide residue limits. China and the United States, Japan, Australia and other developed countries, the use of common international risk assessment techniques and methods to take into account the maximum possible risk for the principles and develop national standards of pesticide residue limits.

      Specific methods and steps are as follows: First, based on agricultural production, processing, distribution, consumption, import and export of various aspects of pesticide use needs and the actual situation, identified the need to develop agricultural residue limits (or food) and a combination of pesticides; then carry pesticide residues Dynamic simulation test, the national diet survey and pesticide toxicology studies, respectively, under normal use pesticides remaining in agricultural products (or food) residual values (including median, maximum residue values, etc.), the consumer dietary data ( Different regions, different ages, different sexes for each agricultural product or foodstuff consumed daily consumption quantity) and the toxicity of pesticides (including acceptable daily intake, acute reference dose, etc.), and dietary intake of pesticide residues carried out on the basis of risk assessment, the results of pesticide residue limits recommended values; and finally, after the National Committee for the Review of food safety pesticide residue standards considered by the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Agriculture jointly promulgated.

     Of particular note is the development residue standards to the maximum possible risk for the foundation, which is to implement the most stringent security requirements; on this basis, but also to increase the safety factor of at least 100-fold, for example, if certain foods pesticide residues of 50mg / kg, the might present a security risk, so the standard set at 0.5mg / kg, pesticide residue standards to determine the relevant units of Pesticides unified testing standards, is an important step to strengthen the importance of food safety regulation.
