This title presents insights into regulations from a variety of countries that provides important information on government strategies. It offers extensive coverage of applications, from animal food to food for human consumption, and disinfestation that explores the various potential application opportunities available for consideration. It addresses risk assessment - key to governmental and more importantly consumer acceptance. It includes all topics in one volume for the first time that provides complete vision of the technology.
