that, Radish is one of agricultural products that bring a lot of nutritional value, providing foods, medicine for people etc Currently, there are two main types of Radish that used commonly which are white and red Radish In Vietnam, Radish is also used to treat coughs, sore throats, acne, water supply, digestive aid [1] Radish brings a lot of economic value as well as utility to people, Commented [A1]: 15/3/2016 ngon vị thuốc từ củ cải /vfa.gov.vn/ so the demand for product quality has to be increasingly raised In order to meet that demand, exporters will introduce measures such as intensive crop enhancement, seed improvement and one of the indispensable measures is used plant protection drugs Plant protection drugs are considered to be an effective weapon of human in preventing pests and protecting plants[2] Besides the advantages of protecting, Commented [A2]: Sở tài nguyên môi trường Vĩnh Phúc (2008) Thuốc bảo vệ thực vật tác động chúng increasing crop yields, pesticides also cause many other harmful effects such as environmental pollution, poisoning to humans and cattle, increasing production costs, and most is leaving residues in agricultural products that affect the quality of agricultural products and consumer health From the benefits that radish brings and to ensure the health and safety for consumers We propose a project: “Study on a highly sensitive method for
