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. |
