Rice and bean constitute the basic diet in underdeveloped countries. In Brazil, the acquisition per capita of these aliments is around 182.9 g/day (beans) and 160.3 g/day (rice). In the present work were evaluated the pesticide residue contamination on these aliments, and possible risks for the consumer health. Pesticide residues were evaluated in 364 bean samples and 143 rice samples commercialized in Sao Paulo City (BRAZIL). A multi-residue method (DFG S19) was employed with gas and liquid chromatography identification and quantification. Dietary intake estimation was processed using the Acute Dietary Ingestion (ADI) based on national data regarding food consumption. Residues of pesticides that, according to the Brazilian legislation, are not allowed for this culture were detected respectively in 4.5% and 3.6% of the bean and rice samples. However, none of the samples had pesticide residues above the Maximum Residue Level (MRL). The European Union (EU) database showed that 7.3% of the bean sample and 85.7% of rice presented pesticide residues above the MRL. The toxicological parameter used for assessing the risk of contamination (ADI <100%) was not exceeded in none of the commodities. The results do not pose a hazard for the consumer’s health. Nevertheless, the presence of multiple residues indicates that continuous studies and monitoring of these commodities are required.
Resumo: A Lei Brasileira 11.340/2006, nomeada como Maria da Penha, abre espaço para a criação dos serviços de responsabilização e educação dos autores de violência. Desta forma, desenvolveu-se o Projeto Basta, que foi implementado no Patronato Penitenciário de Foz do Iguaçu em março de 2016 como uma determinação judicial. Dentre as medidas alternativas, os setores atuantes nesta instituição têm contribuído com este Projeto, que visa o atendimento ao autor de violência doméstica e tem caráter preventivo e pedagógico. Ao longo de sua atuação, o projeto tem apresentado resultados importantes, demonstrando sua funcionalidade, especialmente na prevenção da reincidência e na conscientização da violência doméstica.
