Keywords:
Fruits and vegetable, Pesticides residues, gas chromatography, Singrauli regionAbstract
Eight commercially fruits and vegetable growing sires were selected according to survey. Three fruit samples of banana, guava, and papaya and five vegetables spinach, potato, tomato, cabbage, and brinjal samples were collected from these respective sites (GFS1-GFS8) of Singrauli region. Growers undertaken with consent, they ensure and justify the application of Endosulfan and Chlorpyrifos pesticide during the cultivation of these crops. Residues of pesticide of Endosulfan, and Chlorpyriphos, were monitored in fruit and vegetables samples by Gas Chromatography (GC). All the fruit and vegetable samples were found contaminated among these in concern to fruits only papaya samples were found exceeding the maximum residue limits (MRL) of Codex Alimentarius Commission with Chlorpyrifos whereas the cabbage express more reduced as completed to other tested vegetable samples. The order of Chlorpyrifos pick areas were as Cabbage (1.14) < Banana (1.22) < Spinach (2.14) < Potato (2.29) < Guava (2.32) < Brinjal (14.41) < Tomato (10.44) < Papaya (17.41) and The Endosulfan residues order of pick areas were as potato (4.33) < Spinach (5.67) < Guava (6.17) < Banana (7.12) < Cabbage (11.61) < Tomato (19.25) < Papaya (19.78) < Brinjal (28.37).
