Analytical methods for pesticide residues

A review of literature published in 2012 on analytical methods for pesticides is presented here that includes papers on extraction methods and analytical methods such as chromatographic and spectrometric techniques, spectrophotometric techniques, fluorescence and chemiluminescence techniques, biochemical assays and immunoassays, electrochemical methods, and review articles on analytical methods. Because many of the research studies in the cited publications utilized more than one analytical method, the different sections should not be considered mutually exclusive.
