Pediatrics, 1985
To the Editor.— The Environmental Health Committee of the Northern California Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics is concerned about the finding of pesticide residues in food, particularly the fumigant ethylene dibromide (EDB), which is a known carcinogen in animals and a mutagen in many testing systems, including mammals.1,2 ...

Pesticide residues in biological waste
Chemosphere, 2002The aim of this study was to detect crop protection products (CPP) in single fractions of biological waste and to estimate pesticide concentrations in biological waste, depending on its composition. The composition of biological waste was determined from the literature, which provided information on its local and seasonal variability.

Tobacco is a unique crop with respect to possible contamination by pesticide residues because it is not classified as a food nor a drug and is, therefore, exempt from tolerances by the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of the United States.

Pesticide Residues: Organochlorines
2014Organochlorinated 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.

Pesticide Residues: Dithiocarbamates
2014Dithiocarbamates are synthetic organic compounds containing sulfur and often a sulfur-bound metal, some of which are used to protect fruits and vegetables from fungal infections. Exposure of the general population results from occasional residues in foodstuff.

Pesticide residues in human milk
Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1981Abstract A total of 154 samples of human milk collected 3–6 days after parturition were obtained from four hospitals in Quebec. Samples were analysed by electron-capture gas-liquid chromatography for total DDT (DDT + DDE), aldrin, γ-HCH (lindane) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

Pesticide residues in Australian meat
Veterinary Record, 1989On several occasions in 1987 Australian meat was reported by overseas countries to contain unacceptable levels of pesticide residues. Investigations revealed that the residues were mainly the organochlorine compounds DDT, dieldrin and heptachlor, the concentrations of which exceeded the maximum residue limits. The organochlorines had accumulated in the
