Pesticides are chemicals used to enhance food production. While this factor remains important in the food industry, pesticides are also known to induce toxic effects in humans and animals. This, in part, is due to their stability in food processing (Dewailly et al. 1993; Gunn and Stevens 1976). Pesticide residues have been identified in air, water, foods, and the tissues of unborn children (Dikshith, 1991). As a result, there has been increased public awareness and concern for pesticide use among the public.
