Features: On May 29, 2006, Japan began implementing the "Positive List System" for residues of agricultural chemicals (pesticides, veterinary drugs, and feed additives, etc.) in food, significantly raising the entry barriers for imported food and agricultural products in the country. This undoubtedly poses a severe challenge to China's food and agricultural product exports and also tests the country's analytical and detection technologies. To actively respond to Japan's "Positive List System" and reduce its impact on China's food and agricultural product exports, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine organized experts to compile this book, aiming to provide references for food enterprises exporting to Japan and regulatory units responsible for food exports. It can also be used by enterprise technical personnel and testing personnel. The book includes: methods for detecting chlormequat; methods for detecting azinphos-methyl; methods for detecting aldrin, dieldrin, and endrin; methods for detecting oflfoxadone, phenothiazinone, and phenothiazin; etc.
