The book offers a professional look on the recent achievements and emerging trends in pesticides analysis, including pesticides identification and characterization. The 20 chapters are organized in three sections. The first book section addresses issues associated with pesticides classification, pesticides properties and environmental risks, and pesticides safe management, and provides a general overview on the advanced chromatographic and sensors- and biosensors-based methods for pesticides determination. The second book section is specially devoted to the chromatographic pesticides quantification, including sample preparation. The basic principles of the modern extraction techniques, such as: accelerated solvent extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, microwave assisted extraction, solid phase extraction, solid phase microextraction, matrix solid phase dispersion extraction, cloud point extraction, and QuEChERS are comprehensively described and critically evaluated. The third book section describes some alternative analytical approaches to the conventional methods of pesticides determination. These include voltammetric techniques making use of electrochemical sensors and biosensors, and solid-phase spectrometry combined with flow-injection analysis applying flow-based optosensors.

Fungicides are a class of pesticides used for killing or inhibiting the growth of fungus. They are extensively used in pharmaceutical industry, agriculture, in protection of seed during storage and in preventing the growth of fungi that produce toxins. Hence, fungicides production is constantly increasing as a result of their great importance to agriculture. Some fungicides affect humans and beneficial microorganisms including insects, birds and fish thus public concern about their effects is increasing day by day. In order to enrich the knowledge on beneficial and adverse effects of fungicides this book encompasses various aspects of the fungicides including fungicide resistance, mode of action, management fungal pathogens and defense mechanisms, ill effects of fungicides interfering the endocrine system, combined application of various fungicides and the need of GRAS (generally recognized as safe) fungicides. This volume will be useful source of information on fungicides for post graduate students, researchers, agriculturists, environmentalists and decision makers.

La gestion de la flore adventice fondée majoritairement sur l’utilisation des herbicides est remise en question avec le modèle agricole intensif. Sous la pression de la société civile, les pouvoirs publics incitent le monde agricole à développer des modes de production plus durables, moins dépendants de la chimie. Cet ouvrage collectif explore des voies de gestion de l’enherbement intégrant tous les enjeux environnementaux.Il présente l’état des connaissances actuelles sur la biologie des plantes adventices, la diversité des techniques de gestion et les processus de régulation naturelle. Il est structuré en trois parties portant respectivement sur les connaissances de base en malherbologie, la description des techniques de gestion durable de la flore adventice et diverses études de cas. L’ouvrage reflète la pluralité des points de vue sur la flore adventice qui s’explique par la diversité des disciplines concernées et par les divergences de perception des effets négatifs ou bénéfiques de ces plantes sauvages des champs. C’est l’une des richesses de ce livre. Il s’adresse aux étudiants et enseignants de la filière agricole, ainsi qu’aux agriculteurs et aux prescripteurs du développement agricole qui pourront y trouver un ensemble d’informations utiles au quotidien.
