Green beans, also known as string beans, snap beans in the northeastern and western United States, or ejotes in Mexico, are the unripe fruit of various cultivars of the common bean (<i>Phaseolus vulgaris</i>). Green bean cultivars have been selected especially for the fleshiness, flavor, or sweetness of their pods. Haricots verts, French for "green beans", also known as French beans, French green beans, French filet beans, Fine beans (British English), is a variety of green bean that is longer, thinner, crisp, and tender. It is different from the haricot bean, which is a dry bean. (Wikipedia)

Safety thresholds
pyrethroid residues→ have preharvest intervals →green beans, zucchinis, and peppers
comparison: lower than the ones specified by the makers of commercial formulateslegislation: maximum residue levels
“The preharvest intervals for the residues in these three vegetables was obtained, taking into account the maximum residue levels established by the existing legislation. They were all lower than the ones specified by the makers of commercial formulates, which ensures a safe enough consumption.”

“samples stored at 8 degrees C showed an increase of chlorophyll content at the first 15 days”
“Green beans c.v. Bush Blue Lake‐47 were osmotically concentrated in NaCl‐water solutions at three concentrations (5, 10, and 17% NaCl by weight) and three temperatures (8, 20, and 40°C).”
“Two diffusional models were developed for finite cylindrical shaped bodies which take into account that mass transfer could have a nonisotropic nature. ... The proposed models were applied to the simulation of drying curves of green beans (Phaseolus vulgaris).”
