Description The present investigations were carried out on “Monitoring of Insecticides
Residues in selected vegetables from three vegetable markets of Hyderabad”
during November, 2006 to March, 2007 at All India Network Project on Pesticide
Residues, College of Agriculture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad. The vegetables viz.,
cabbage, brinjal and bhendi collected from Boinpally Vegetable Market, Secunderabad;
Rythu Bazar, Mehdipatnam and Vegetable Market Shamshabad were analyzed by multi
residue method and estimated by Gas Chromatography.
The results indicated that twenty nine out of thirty samples of each cabbage,
brinjal and bhendi were contaminated with one or more insecticide residues. The
insecticide residues of alphamethrin was not detected in all the vegetables collected
from three vegetable markets. Out of three vegetable markets, more number of samples
from Boinpally Vegetable Market, Secunderabad contained insecticide residues above
permissible limits followed by Shamshabad Vegetable Market while none of the
samples from Rythu Bazar, Mehdipatnam exceeded insecticide residues above
maximum residue limits (MRL).
Among the organophosphates analyzed, only chlorpyriphos residues were found
to be above MRL in six samples of cabbage and one sample of each brinjal and bhendi.
The insecticide residues of two synthetic pyrethroids, deltamethrin and fenpropathrin
detected in cabbage and brinjal samples respectively exceeded the MRL. All the
organochlorine insecticide residues detected in the vegetables collected from three
different markets were below MRL.
