“…It is possible that this low level of contamination is related to the fact that HCH use is banned in Jordan. This observation is in agreement with another study in Jordan that showed 11 egg samples (27.5%) contained OCP residues at levels less than MRL, only three samples contained residues (7.5%) at a higher level of than MRL, but none of these samples contained HCH (Alawi, Al‐Antary, Estityah, & Haddad, ). In that study, chlorinated pesticide residues were evaluated through 2013 to 2014.…”

“…In that study, chlorinated pesticide residues were evaluated through 2013 to 2014. All positive egg samples (11/35), milk products (2/30), and meat (21/55) contained HCH, DDT, heptachlor, and aldrin at a level less than MRL (Alawi et al., ). The HCH level detected in this study is lower than the level reported from other countries in products of animal origin.…”

The abuse of pesticides in home gardens may lead to contamination of home-grown eggs. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), aldrin, and malathion pesticides residues in egg white and egg yolk of home-grown eggs in Jordan; and the effect of refrigerated storage and heat treatment (boiling and frying) on residues level. High-performance liquid chromatography was used to detect pesticide residues in egg samples (n = 200) obtained from households that raise laying hens in Jordan. About 96% of the tested eggs showed pesticide residues. None of the tested egg samples showed residual level above maximum residue limit (MRL 0.02 mg/kg) for HCH, whereas 33% and 44% of samples were above MRL for aldrin and malathion, respectively. All studied pesticide residues were detected from both egg yolk and egg white. The concentrations of malathion and aldrin (0.075 and 0.067 mg/kg) in egg yolk were higher than those (0.049 and 0.058 mg/kg) in egg white samples. Pesticide residue levels were quite stable during refrigeration storage whereas heat treatment (boiling at 100°C and frying at 160°C) significantly reduced contamination levels to values below MRL. The high level of pesticide residues in home-grown egg in Jordan may reflect the improper use of pesticides in home gardens and thus exposing the environment to unwanted pollution and the risk they may pose on human health.

“…Several studies have been carried out in Jordan to monitor specific classes of pesticides in agricultural products and in food of animal origin. The presence of Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in animal products was reported by Ahmad et al (2010), Antary et al (2012), and Alawi et al (2016). Other studies have also documented their presence in mother milk (Nasir et al 1998;Al Antary et al 2015).…”

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the presence of five neonicotinoid pesticides, acetamiprid, imidacloprid, clothianidin, thiacloprid, and thiamethoxam, in sheep and cow milk samples collected from animals bred in the Jordan Valley. In this area, numerous citrus plantations are present, and these insecticides are commonly used to protect plants from pests and diseases. Thirty-seven sheep milk samples and thirty-one cow milk samples were analysed. The analytical method, based on a single cleanup extraction step with SPE cartridges packed with diatomaceous earth material, together with analysis by LC-MS/MS, has guaranteed average recoveries between 75.1% and 88.3%, limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) of 0.5 and 1 µg/kg, respectively, for all the five neonicotinoids. LOQ was much lower than the Codex Maximum Residues Limits (MRLs) for these pesticides in milks. No residues of the five neonicotinoids were found in any sample at a concentration level above LOD.

“…Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane and its metabolites, HCH, aldrin, heptachlor, and hexachlorobenzene were determined. The samples showed low concentrations of the investigated organochlorine pesticides with a mean of 0.55, 3.77, 4.91, 3.28, 4.67, and 3.27 ppb in seawater, and beach sediments, respectively (Alawi et al, 2017). Therefore, this study aims to determine the level of organochlorines, organophosphorus, carbamates and pyrethroid pesticide residues in nearby freshwater fish and imported frozen fish in Jordan.…”

Contamination of aquatic systems with pesticides occurs frequently. This study aimed to detect the levels of some pesticides: organochlorines, organophosphorus, pyrethroids, and carbamates groups in imported frozen and local fresh fish in Jordan. A total of 218 samples were randomly collected (194 imported frozen fish). Samples were analyzed using Liquid Chromatography with Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC/Ms/Ms). Results showed that 23 different pesticides were found in this study. All 218 fish samples were contaminated with at least 4 compounds and maximally 12 pesticides. In terms of contamination rate, no significant differences between local and imported types were observed. Up to 65.2% of pesticides were detected at concentration higher than the maximum residue limit set by the WHO (10 ppb) in 215 samples (98.6%). These samples concluded heavy contaminations with different pesticides for either imported or locally raised products. Therefore, routine monitoring of pesticides in fish and their environment are officially required.
