Joint meeting of the FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food and the Environment and the WHO Core Assessment Group on Pesticide Residues, Berlin, Germany, 18–27 September 2018
Overview
The toxicological monographs and monograph addenda contained in this volume were prepared by a WHO Core Assessment Group on Pesticide Residues that met with the FAO Panel of Experts on Pesticide Residues in Food and the Environment in a Joint Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) in Berlin, Germany, on 18–27 September 2018.
The toxicological monographs and monograph addenda contained in this volume are based on working papers that were prepared by WHO experts before the 2018 Joint Meeting. A special acknowledgment is made to those experts and to the experts of the Joint Meeting who reviewed early drafts of these working papers.
These monographs were prepared based on the evaluation of the original studies and the dossier provided by the sponsor(s) of the compound, of the relevant published scientific literature and of the data submitted by Codex members. When found consistent with the data of the original study, the monographs may contain parts of the text and tables of the dossier submitted by the sponsor(s), but not the conclusions of the sponsor(s). These monographs and their conclusions are based on an independent review of the available data and do not constitute an endorsement of the position of the sponsor(s).
