Editor Nollet and his broad team of international contributors address the most recent advances in analysis of endocrine disrupting chemicals in food. While covering conventional (typically lab-based) methods of analysis, the book focuses on leading-edge technologies that recently have been introduced. The book looks at areas such as food quality assurance and safety. Issues such as persistent organic pollutants, monitoring pesticide and herbicide residues in food, determining heavy and other metals in food and discussing the impacts of dioxins, PCBs, PCDFs and many other suspected chemicals are covered.  \u003cp\u003eThe book discusses the relationship between chemical compounds and hormone activity. What are the health impacts of different chemical compounds for men and animals? How are these compounds entering in foodstuffs? \u003ci\u003eAnalysis of Endocrine Disrupting Compounds in Food\u003c\/i\u003e offers the food professional what its title promises – a compendium of sample preparation and analysis techniques of possible endocrine disrupting compounds in food.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e \u003cli\u003eUniquely concentrates on analysis and detection methods of EDCs in foodstuffs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtensive coverage of the main types of globally available analytical techniques and methodologies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFully detailed properties, sample procedures, and analysis steps for each EDC\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRenowned editor Leo Nollet leads a broad team of international experts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eLeo M.L.
