Analysis of Organochlorine Pesticide Residues in Various Vegetable Oils Collected in Chinese Markets.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2020
Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), chemicals frequently used in agriculture, are a group of highly toxic and persistent organic pollutants. This study assesses the distribution and congener profiles of residual OCPs in 11 types of vegetable oils collected

Pesticide Residues: Organochlorines

2014
Organochlorinated pesticides, such as dichlorodiphenylethanes, hexachlorocyclohexanes, cyclodienes, hexachlorobenzene, chlordecone, and mirex, are persistent lipophilic compounds that tend to bioaccumulate in food chain. Because of their high vapor pressure, they may be transported long distances by air currents.

Organochlorine Pesticides by LC−MS

Analytical Chemistry, 2008
Contamination of water resources by organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) continues to receive widespread attention because of the increasing concern regarding their high persistence and bioaccumulation. These organic pollutants are not amenable by liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to atmospheric pressure ionization-mass spectrometry, which represents the ...

Organochlorine pesticide residues in human breast tissue and their relationships with clinical and pathological characteristics of breast cancer

Environmental Toxicology, 2018
Agricultural pesticides are abundant environmental contaminants worldwide, prompting interest in studying their possible detrimental health effects. We examined organochlorine residues by quadrant (n = 245) in breast adipose tissues from 51 women with ...

Organochlorine pesticides and human health

Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1971
Summary In autopsy specimens of body fat from non-occupationally exposed residents of Dade County, Florida, the mean concentrations of DDT-derived material were 9·7 ppm in 42 cases of accidental death, 9·4 ppm in 31 individuals who used pesticides in home or garden only sparingly, 19·4 ppm in 65 moderate users and 27 ppm in 22 individuals who used ...

Organochlorine pesticides in Argentinian butter

Science of The Total Environment, 1994
Organochlorine pesticide residues were analysed in 150 samples of butter collected from several places in the cities of Santa Fe and Rosario (Argentine Republic) over a period of 18 months. Pesticides analysed in butter were: HCH (alpha and gamma isomers), heptachlor and its epoxide, aldrin, dieldrin, and DDT (p,p' DDE, o,p' DDT and p,p' DDT).

Organochlorine Pesticides in Seals and Porpoises

Nature, 1967
Seals and porpoises in Scotland and Canada, far from the sites of application of pesticides, can accumulate high concentrations of residues in their blubber. These chemicals are spreading through the long food chain which ends with seals and porpoises and obviously cannot be confined to their place of discharge.

Organochlorine Pesticides

2019
Indiscriminate use of different pesticides in agriculture has increased over the years, especially in the developing countries. This influences the aquatic environment to a great extent. This also poses a great danger to freshwater organisms, including fish, which constitute a major share in the aquatic environment and contribute to the economy of the ...

Accumulation of Organochlorine Pesticides in Man

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1972
Abstract It is generally known that organochlorine pesticides are slowly eliminated and that they accumulate in humans. By using pharmacokinetic relationships, these properties were quantitated to make them more meaningful. Repeated dosing causes the average level of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane at equilibrium to rise to 500 times that following a ...
