Abstract:
In several studies focused on the residues of cyazofamid and its main metabolite 4-chloro-5-p-tolylimidazole-2-carbonitrile (CCIM) on tomato where it is widely used, CCIM has been shown to have higher acute toxicity than cyazofamid, and this is crucial to evaluate the potential food risk of cyazofamid and CCIM. In this study, the dissipation of cyazofamid and CCIM during tomato growth and tomato paste making process were assessed. The targeted compounds cyazofamid and CCIM were determined by LC-MS/MS. The results indicated that the half-life of cyazofamid was 4.6 days after applying in the field, and the maximum value of CCIM was 0.08 mg/kg at 3 days after the last application of cyazofamid, then gradually decreased. In addition, the concentrations of cyazofamid and CCIM were affected by different processing steps including washing, peeling, homogenisation, simmering, and sterilisation. Results showed that the mean losses of cyazofamid and CCIM were 92.3% and 75.2% after washing and peeling. The Processing Factor (PF) values were all less than 1. Especially for peeling, the PFs of cyazofamid and CCIM were 0.12 and 0.04, respectively.

Power Dissipated in a Circuit: Problem Solving
The simplest combinations of resistors are series and parallel connections. In a series circuit, the first resistor's output current flows into the second resistor's input; therefore, each resistor's current is the same. Thus, the equivalent resistance is the algebraic sum of the resistances. The current through the circuit can be found from Ohm's law and is equal to the...
