“…The mean values of the residual concentrations of total DDT in the examined dairy products were 29.6 μg/kg fat, respectively, with median 25.2 μg/kg (Table 6). The presence of DDT in milk and milk products has also been reported by Krautchaker & Reiner (2001) and Bošnir et al (2010) as well as in other countries (Nevein et al, 2009;Dawood et al, 2004;Bulut et al, 2010). These studies have found that DDT complex were the most frequent contaminants in dairy products.…”

“…We have observed that the hematological and biochemical parameters, oxidantantioxidant systems, many organs and tissues such as brain, heart, jejunum, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, and pancreas were negatively affected by the toxicity of organophosphate compounds. [4,8,9,10,11,12,13] Methomyl and acetamiprid are important pesticide-active ingredients commonly used in the growing process of fruit and vegetables. Methomyl, S-methyl N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-thioacetimidate, belongs to the carbamate group and it is highly soluble in water (5.8 g/L).…”

The removal of pesticide residues is essential in order to control and reduce the harmful effects of pesticides commonly used in agriculture. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of 18 different household washing solutions for the reduction of methomyl and acetamiprid residues from tomatoes. These basic household solutions were used to prepare washing solution to remove pesticides. During this study, tomatoes were divided into two groups: in the first group, tomatoes were treated with the pesticides and the second group was washed with household solutions (distilled water, acetic acid, sodium chloride, ethanol, sodium bicarbonate, hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite, and liquid soap, lemon juice, mineral water, zam-zam water, whey, milk, and their combinations) after treating with pesticides. The pesticides residues in all samples were extracted by the QuEChERS technique, analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The results showed significant reduction in residues of all washed groups compared with the control (p < 0.01). Acetic acid, sodium chloride+sodium bicarbonate, zam-zam water, acetic acid+sodium chloride, sodium hypochlorite, milk, acetic acid+sodium chloride+sodium bicarbonate, liquid whey, liquid soap, lemon juice, ethanol, and sodium bicarbonate were found to remove more than 50% of both pesticide residues. The effectiveness of washing solutions was different for every type of pesticide. In the same way, blend of washing solutions has shown a synergetic effect on the removal of pesticides and was more effective compared to one solution. This research has raised the potential use of household solutions easily found at home that could be used to remove pesticide residues.

“…Similarly, Güvenç and Aksoy () analyzed 100 samples of cows’ milk collected from Samsun region in terms of nine organochlorines and five synthetic pyrethroids pesticides and did not find any pesticide residues in any of their samples. On the other hand, Bulut, Akkaya, Gök, and Konuk ( and ) found that in butter samples consumed in Afyon, there was 0.002 mg/kg fat α‐HCH, 0.214 mg/kg fat β‐HCH, 0.003 mg/kg fat γ‐HCH, 0.005 mg/kg fat p,p 1 ‐DDE, and 0.025 mg/kg fat p,p 1 ‐DDT; in cream samples there was 0.001 mg/kg fat α‐HCH, 0.09 mg/kg fat β‐HCH, 0.004 mg/kg fat γ‐HCH, 0.007 mg/kg fat p,p 1 ‐DDE, and 0.019 mg/kg fat p,p 1 ‐DDT; in milk samples there was 0.091 mg/kg fat β‐HCH and 0.016 mg/kg fat p,p 1 ‐DDT.…”

Although pesticides are widely used for preventing foods from pests, there are some legal regulations about pesticide residues in foods because of their negative impact on human health. Organochlorine pesticide residues in pasteurized and UHT milk samples were determined by QuEChERS sample preparation method followed by GC/MS. Despite they are prohibited, varying levels of heptachlor (up to 65.42 μg/kg), heptachlor epoxide (up to 2.62 μg/kg), aldrin (up to 3.86 μg/kg), 4,41‐DDE (up to 4.28 μg/kg), dieldrin (up to 4.85 μg/kg), 2,41‐DDT (up to 7.32 μg/kg), and β‐endosulfan (up to 4.74 μg/kg) were detected. The incidence of pesticide residues in the samples was between 2.22% and 97.78%. It was determined that total pesticide residue amounts ranged between 27.04 and 74.69 μg/kg, and the majority of the total pesticide residue amounts belonged to heptachlor. In addition, it was determined that total pesticide residue amounts in UHT milk samples were higher than pasteurized milk samples. Practical applicationsDue to the fact that pesticides are widely used in order to eliminate pests, consumption of pesticides increases. This situation has led to the emergence of many important problems in terms of environmental pollution and human health such as cancer, birth abnormalities, and nervous system diseases. Therefore, residual analysis, monitoring, and risk assessment of food are gaining importance every day. Although the use of some pesticides is prohibited, the present study shows that these pesticides could be detected in both pasteurized and UHT milk samples. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the control of pesticides.
