Conference Theme

Pesticides and related emerging organic pollutants include pharmaceuticals and personal care products(PPCP), metals, microplastic are contamination the environmentdue to human activities. Pesticides are continuously used in agriculture to killpests and to increase food production in India and throughout world. Pesticides arealso used in domestic sphere, forestry and public health purposes. India is one of the largest manufacturers of pesticides and consumption of pesticides is increasing every year. Indiscriminate use of pesticides is not only to kill the targeted pests, but also has effects on non-target organisms and also impacts on the environment including water, soil, air, plants and contamination of the food stuffs such as vegetables, fruits, fish and prawns etc.

Humans are continuously exposed to pesticides through the food chain and for several years throughout the world. Some recent research studies suggested that the presence of pesticides in the environment and also inhuman milk, tissues and blood evidence of the magnitude of pesticides impact on the environment and human health. Some pesticides exposure has been linked to diseases such as cancer, as well as neurotoxicity and neurodegenerative disorders. The principle neurotoxicity after exposure to pesticides is presumed to result from protein interaction with pesticides for example organophosphorous pesticides inhibit acetylcholineErsterase(AChE) via formation of a covalent protein adduct to pesticides.

The conference will bring together experts from India and other countries giving an opportunity not only to scientists from different disciplines, but also other organizations, policy makers and groups involved in control of pesticides to meet together and discuss future trends and action.The conference will discuss comprehensive perspectives on the current challenges of pesticides pollution and the impact on the environment and human health. The conference will also discuss how pesticides and other chemicals effect non-target organisms includes human,fish, prawn, etc by interactions of pesticides with biomolecules proteins and DNA and the associated link todiseases. The conference will address biotechnological and nanotechnological methods and biopesticides and also environmental biotechnology methods, to avoid the impact of the pesticides on environment and to find the remedies for the pesticide pollution
