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 ...

Persistent organochlorine pesticides in Mexican butter
Food Additives and Contaminants, 2003Organochlorine pesticides have been used in Mexico in malaria control programmes against ectoparasites and as seed dresser. Owing to their chemical stability, they tend to accumulate in the lipid part of the organisms. The stored pesticides are excreted with the endogenous fat during milk production.

Biodegradation of Organochlorine Pesticides
2015The widespread use of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), mainly in the past, has caused serious environmental problems. Many OCPs were recently categorized as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that should be controlled as toxic environmental contaminants.

Organochlorine Pesticide Residues in Bovine Milk
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2007Monitoring of bovine milk of different places in Bundelkhand region of India was carried out to evaluate the status of organochlorine pesticide (OCP) residues. Out of a total of 325 samples 206 (63.38%) were contaminated with residues of different OCPs. The average concentration of total HCH was 0.162 mg/kg.

Organochlorine pesticide residues in bamboo shoot
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2010AbstractBACKGROUND: Xenobiotic organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are a major environmental problem because of their historic widespread use, pronounced persistence against chemical and biological degradation, and bioaccumulation in the food chain. Pesticide use is prevalent in the production of edible bamboo shoots, which are exported widely from China.

Organochlorine Pesticides in Seals and Porpoises
Nature, 1967Seals 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 in Antarctica
Nature, 1967The first reports of organochlorine pesticides in wildlife in the vicinity of the US Antarctic base at McMurdo Sound suggested that local human activity might be responsible. Measurements of samples from the British Antarctic Survey Base at Signy Island in the South Orkneys now suggest that there is a world-wide pattern of distribution by means of the ...

Accumulation of Organochlorine Pesticides in Man
Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1972Abstract 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 ...

Fungal Degradation of Organochlorine Pesticides
2016The last 20th century brought many scientific and technological advances to human beings. The synthesis of chemical pesticides, capable to prevent, control and eliminate some relevant pests is one of them. The infestation of crop fields with pests has repercussions directly on the quality of foodstuffs and also on economic gains.
