While recognizing the gaps in pesticide regulations that impact consumer safety, public health concerns associated with pesticide contamination of foods are pointed out. The strategies and research directions proposed to prevent and/or reduce pesticide adverse effects on human health and the environment are discussed. Special attention is paid to organophosphate pesticides, as widely applied insecticides in agriculture, veterinary practices, and urban areas. Biotic and abiotic strategies for organophosphate pesticide degradation are discussed from a food safety perspective, indicating associated challenges and potential for further improvements. As food systems are endangered globally by unprecedented challenges, there is an urgent need to globally harmonize pesticide regulations and improve methodologies in the area of food safety to protect human health.
在认识到影响消费者安全的农药法规存在漏洞的同时，也指出了与食品农药污染相关的公共卫生问题。讨论了为预防和/或减少农药对人类健康和环境的不利影响而提出的策略和研究方向。特别关注有机磷农药，因为它们是农业、兽医实践和城市地区广泛使用的杀虫剂。从食品安全角度讨论了有机磷农药降解的生物和非生物策略，指出了相关挑战和进一步改进的潜力。由于全球粮食系统面临前所未有的挑战，迫切需要在全球范围内统一农药法规，并改进食品安全领域的方法，以保护人类健康。
