Monitoring of pesticide residues in Egyptian fruits and vegetables during 1997

A total of 2318 domestic samples of different types of fruits and vegetables were collected from eight Egyptian local markets in six different regions of the country. All samples were examined for residues of 54 pesticides, including organophosphorus, organonitrogen, organohalogen and certain pyrethroides. However, dithiocarbamates were analysed in only 318 samples. Overall, 81.5% of the samples had no detectable pesticide residues. Of the contaminated samples, 18.5% contained detectable residues and 1.9% exceeded their maximum residue limits (MRLs). Root and leafy vegetables showed the lowest contamination rates (1.9 and 4.7%, respectively), slightly exceeding the MRLs in leafy vegetables. However, fruit samples showed a slightly higher proportion of contamination than vegetables (29 and 14.3%, respectively). Fruit also exhibited a higher level of violation than vegetables (2.3 and 1.9%, respectively). The contamination and violation rates were lower than the percentages recorded in previous years' monitoring studies. Dicofol and dimethoate were the most frequently occurring pesticide residues at 5.1 and 5.0%, respectively. Dimethoate showed higher violation levels (0.69%). However, dicofol showed a slight violation rate (0.09%) which indicates good agricultural practices for dicofol use. Dithiocarbamates residues were found in 21 of the 318 samples analysed, which when expressed as a percentage contamination was 6.6%, and only one sample exceeded the MRL.

Pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables in Jordan using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry

A total of 158 fruit and vegetable samples produced in Jordan were examined for the presence of pesticide residues using the multi-residue analysis technique by Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and the QuEchERS extraction method. A total of 73 samples (46%) were free from detectable residues, while 85 samples (54%) contained residues. Among the tested samples, 34 (22%) contained residues above Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) and 51 (32%) contained residues at or below MRLs. Most of the detected residues were found in sweet pepper, peach and apricot samples. Only watermelon samples were free from detectable residues, while tomato and melon samples exhibited residues below MRLs. Out of the 113 pesticides tested, 22 pesticides were found above the limit of detection, 9 of which (hexaconazole, propargite, propiconazole, myclobutanil, thiamethoxam, thiacloprid, clothianidin, clofentezine and pyridaben) had residues that violate MRLs according to European regulations. A continuous monitoring programme for pesticide residues in Jordanian fruits and vegetables is highly recommended.     

Pesticide residues determination in China vegetables in 2010–2013 applying gas chromatography with mass spectrometry

The levels of multi-pesticide residues in highly consumed types of vegetables in western regions of China were investigated in this study. Vegetable samples (506) were collected from local markets from 2010 to 2013, and the concentrations of 21 types of organophosphorus (OP) and pyrethroid (PYR) pesticides from the samples were determined by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Ten OP pesticides were found in concentrations ranging from 0.0008 to 4.0544 mg/kg. Five types of PYR pesticides were determined to have concentrations in the range of 0.0009 to 6.0827 mg/kg. There were no residues in 69.76% of the samples. A portion (25.49%) of the samples contained pesticide residues less than or equal to the maximum residue limits (MRLs), and 4.94% of samples contained pesticide residues greater than their MRLs. This study provides useful information on the current contamination status of a key agricultural area in China from 2010 to 2013 and highlights the need for regular monitoring of pesticide residues in a greater number of vegetable samples and for longer periods, especially in leafy vegetables, to protect consumers.

Evaluation of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables from Algeria

ABSTRACT

A total of 160 samples of 13 types of fresh fruits and vegetables from domestic production and import were analysed to detect the presence of pesticide residues. Analysis was performed by multi-residual extraction followed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. In 42.5% of the tested samples, no residues were found and 12.5% of samples contained pesticide residues above maximum residue limits. Risk assessment for long-term exposure was done for all pesticides detected in this study. Except chlorpyrifos and lambda-cyhalothrin, exposure to pesticides from vegetables and fruits was below 1% of the acceptable daily intake. Short-term exposure assessment revealed that in seven pesticide/commodity combinations, including three pesticides (chlorpyrifos, deltamethrin and lambda-cyhalothrin), the acute reference dose had been exceeded.     

Occurrence of fungicide and insecticide residues in trade samples of leafy vegetables

The aim of this work was to report on a total of 23 fungicides and insecticides residues in 75 green and leafy vegetables (Swiss chards, Spinaches and Lettuces) collected from Ourense (NW Spain) by Spring 2007. The pesticides in the study samples were extracted with acetonitrile; the extracts were then cleaned-up by solid-phase extraction and concentrated before determination by PTV (Programmable Temperature Vaporization Injector) – GC-ITMS. Use of analyte protectants mixtures provided the best results in terms of effective compensation for matrix-induced enhancement effect. Pesticide residues were determined above the maxima residue limits (MRL) in 15 of the 75 analyzed samples, with a total of 18 violations of the MRL (three of the samples did not fulfil with two different pesticide MRL). The highest concentrations of fungicides were found in lettuce (procymidone, 12 mg/kg) and the highest concentrations of insecticides were found in Swiss chard (cypermethrin, 6 mg/kg). More positives for fungicides were detected and at larger concentrations than insecticides, especially for lettuces. Accumulation of pesticides in lettuces is higher than for the other leafy vegetables. The findings of this study pointed to the following recommendation: the need for a monitoring program for residues of iprodione and procymidone, together with cypermethrin, in food crops at the national level.     

Pesticides and heavy metals levels in Egyptian leafy vegetables and some aromatic medicinal plants

A total of 835 samples of leafy vegetables and some aromatic medicinal plants were collected from five different areas of Egypt during 1999. Ninety-seven per cent of the leafy vegetables were contaminated with heavy metals with 39% exceeding the maximum limits for each element. Cadmium was detected in 78 of 116 samples of leafy vegetable, although without any exceeding the maximum limits. However, lead was detected in 99 samples, of which 39 exceeded the maximum limits (0.3 mg kg^-1) and 56 medicinal plant samples of 70 had lead levels above 0.5 mg kg^-1. Copper was detected in 69 medicinal plant samples, of which 58 samples contained levels higher than 10 mg kg^-1. However, cadmium was only found in 43% of samples with only two of 70 samples above the maximum limit. Seventy-three per cent of the samples of medicinal plants were contaminated with pesticide residues, of which 44% contained amounts that exceeded maximum residue limits. Malathion was the most frequently found pesticide residue, being detected in 203 of 391 (52%.) samples, followed by profenofos, which was detected in 131 of 391 (33%) samples.     

2012—2014年青岛、深圳、大连三口岸282份进口水果和蔬菜中农药残留监测

目的掌握和了解进口水果和蔬菜中农药残留污染状况,为国家制定和完善相关标准和采取相关措施提供科学依据。方法本文采用GB/T 19648—2006《水果和蔬菜中500种农药及相关化学品残留量的测定气相色谱-质谱法》和GB/T 20769—2008《水果和蔬菜中450种农药及相关化学品残留量的测定液相色谱-串联质谱法》分析方法,对2012—2014年从青岛、深圳、大连三个主要水果和蔬菜进口口岸采集的282份水果和蔬菜样品进行了666种农药残留的检测。结果对282份水果和蔬菜样品进行农药残留测定和技术分析:未检出农药残留样品31份,占11.0%;检出农药残留样品251份,占89.0%。共检测出农药52种,频次702次。结合中国、欧盟、日本的农药最大残留限量标准,对获得的数据进行了科学的分析:进口香蕉、榴莲、火龙果、草莓的农药残留水平整体处于安全水平,应加强进口龙眼、樱桃、葡萄中农药残留的检测和监管。结论进口水果和蔬菜的农药残留检出率较高,达到89.0%,但超出中国最大残留限量标准的样品较少,只占1.1%,说明进口水果和蔬菜中农药残留整体处于安全水平。     

杨桃中化学污染物分析及农药残留暴露评估

以杨桃为研究对象,对广东、广西、海南和福建的基地收购点、批发市场和农贸市场等地点的样品进行化学污染物残留分析。结果表明：农贸市场和水果摊样品的农药残留种类少,基地收购点的农残种类最多,超标样品集中在基地收购点。检出率最高的3 种农药为氯氰菊酯、多菌灵和灭幼脲。3 份样品检出镉超标。经点评估对农药残留初步分析,杨桃中的残留风险总体较低,仅三氯杀螨醇存在潜在风险。分布点评估的结果表明,在较高的置信概率P99.5风险水平下,三氯杀螨醇暴露量在幼儿和儿童（2～10 岁）的亚群超过日允许摄入量,存在不可接受的风险。建议重点对基地收购点样品监控,制定三氯杀螨醇、多菌灵和灭幼脲在杨桃上的最大残留限量或筛选三氯杀螨醇的替代品。

Impact of food consumption habits on the pesticide dietary intake: Comparison between a French vegetarian and the general population

This study aims to compare the pesticide residue dietary intake of the French general population and the vegetarian population, separated into five specific diets: omnivorous (OMN), lacto-vegetarian (LV), ovo-lacto-vegetarian (OLV), pesco-lacto-vegetarian (PLV) and vegan (VG). Theoretical Maximum Daily Intakes (TMDIs) based on Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) were calculated as a percentage of the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI). Among the 421 pesticides studied, only 48 had TMDI above ADI for at least one population subgroup. An excessive exposure was noticed for 44, 43, 42, 41 and 30 pesticides in the OLV, VG, OMN, LV and PLV groups, respectively, versus 29 in the general population. Meat and egg products consumption was responsible for higher intakes of organochlorine pesticides in the general population than in the vegetarian population (TMDI = 348% versus 146–183% ADI for aldrin). However, as the limited consumption of animal-origin commodities was largely offset by a higher fruit, vegetable and cereal intake in the vegetarian diets, vegetarians appear to be preferentially exposed to pesticides, for which fruit, vegetables and cereals are the main contributors, such as tri-allate, chlorpyrifos-methyl and diazinon. This study illustrates that consumption habits have a real impact on pesticide exposure in terms of intake levels, number and type of pesticides, representing a potential risk of dietary exposure. Except for organochlorine compounds, the vegetarian population may be more exposed to pesticide residues than the general population due to specific dietary habits. Thus, this population should be considered for risk assessment of pesticide residues.
