The 2024 European Union report on pesticide residues in food
Abstract Under European Union legislation (Article 32, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005), the European Food Safety Authority publishes an annual report assessing pesticide residue levels in food. In 2024, 9842 samples were analysed as part of the EU‐coordinated multiannual control programme subset, of which 1.2% were found to be non‐compliant.

ABSTRACT Lindane (γ‐hexachlorocyclohexane, γ‐HCH) is a broad‐spectrum pesticide widely used since the 1950s until its inclusion in the Stockholm Convention list of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in 2009, together with other HCH isomers. The high persistence and mismanagement of the toxic wastes generated during its synthesis have led to serious ...

RELATIVE REACTIVITIES OF THE GEOMETRICAL ISOMERS OF HEXACHLOROCYCLOHEXANE
The dehydrochlorination of hexachlorocyclohexane to trichlorobenzene in an alcoholic solution of piperidine was investigated, and the relative reactivities of four geometrical isomers of hexachlorocyclohexane determined.
