Forensic Chemistry of Pesticides and Insecticides – Training Services

Forensic Chemistry of Pesticides and Insecticides – Training Services provides specialized knowledge on the detection, identification, and forensic analysis of pesticides and insecticides in criminal, environmental, and toxicological investigations. The course covers the chemistry and classification of organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids, and other pesticide classes, along with their toxicological effects and pathways of exposure. Participants will learn advanced analytical methods such as gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, and mass spectrometry for residue detection in biological and environmental samples. Emphasis is placed on proper sampling, contamination control, chain-of-custody, and interpretation of toxicological data in forensic and legal contexts. Case studies highlight real-world applications including poisoning incidents, environmental contamination, and occupational exposure cases.
