PESTICIDE_RESIDUES
|
Pesticide residues
|
Pesticide residue refers to the pesticides that may remain on or in food after they are applied to food crops. The maximum allowable levels of these residues in foods are often stipulated by regulatory bodies in many countries. Regulations such as pre-harvest intervals also often prevent harvest of crop or livestock products if recently treated in order to allow residue concentrations to decrease over time to safe levels before harvest. Exposure of the general population to these residues most commonly occurs through consumption of treated food sources, or being in close contact to areas treated with pesticides such as farms or lawns.

Biotin

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H or vitamin I, is a water-soluble vitamin from the B complex. As a prosthetic group of enzymes, it plays an important role in metabolism, but is also important in the nucleus for the epigenetic regulation of gene function. It plays an essential role in the production of energy from nutrients, as well as in the synthesis of fatty acids and amino acids. It is both provided by the diet and manufactured by the intestinal flora. Many countries like France often refer to biotin as vitamin B8. However, the name recommended by IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) is only biotin.

A hazelnut is the nut of the hazel and is also known as cobnut or filbert nut according to species. A cob is roughly spherical to oval, about 15–25 mm long and 10–15 mm in diameter, with an outer fibrous husk surrounding a smooth shell. A filbert is more elongated, being about twice as long as it is round. The nut falls out of the husk when ripe, about seven to eight months after pollination. The kernel of the seed is edible and used raw or roasted, or ground into a paste. Hazelnuts are also used for livestock feed, as are chestnuts and acorns. The seed has a thin, dark brown skin, which is sometimes removed before cooking.
