JMPR Reports
FAO Plant Production and Protection Paper series
These reports, published by the Food and Agriculture Organization, contain concise summaries of all relevant information for the evaluation of pesticide residues in food, including intake estimates. In addition, the reports also contain general considerations relating to the procedures applied by JMPR. Reports reflect the agreed view of the Committee as a whole and describe the basis for their conclusions. More detailed information can be found in the toxicological monographs, published as WHO Evaluations Part II: Toxicology.
In addition, information on pesticide use patterns, data on the chemistry and composition of pesticides, methods of analysis for pesticide residues, and information on MRLs can be found in the residues and analytical aspects monographs, published as FAO Evaluations Part I: Residues
