Produktbeschreibung
This book presents strategies to reduce drug and chemical residues in food from livestock production, and also some of the newer technologies and theories that will shape drug residues management in the future. One of the novel features of this book is that it ties in the realities of veterinary clinical practice and use of these drugs in food animals with regulatory standards and mitigation practices. Highlighting approaches from around the world, the book details strategies to minimize contamination, residue monitoring programs, and classes of drugs and chemicals that pose contaminant risk in livestock. The first section focuses on strategies that are part of public policy in national and international agencies and how these agencies assess the toxicology of veterinary drugs and contaminants. These chapters provide a general introduction to basic pharmacokinetic principles pertaining to estimating a safe withdrawal time for veterinary drugs and contaminants. The second half focuses on the use of major drug classes in livestock food animal production systems and those drugs most likely targeted for regulatory policy, pharmacokinetic modelling, and chemical residue monitoring.
