Insecticide Residue in Fruit Crops like mango and guava .pptx

it helps to understand insecticide in fruit crops

1. Insecticide Residue in Fruit Crops Presented by G. SriVidhya (PH/2020/46)

2. Insecticide Residue: Insecticide Residue is defined by World Health Organization Application insecticide/pesticides is associated with fruit cultivation so intensely that today it has become impossible to get economic yield without their use Among the common fruits being consumed mango, grape, guava, banana, citrus, plum and sapota were monitored across the country It is Surprising to find that majority of market basket fruit samples were found contaminated with residues of toxic and hard to degrade chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides like DDT and BHC

3. Mango: Mangifera indica Insecticide Residual Average(ppm) Dichloro Diphenyl Thricholoethane (DDT) 0.045 - 0.09 Hexa Chlorocyclo Hexane(HCH) 0.04 - 2.25 Benzene Hexa Chloride (BHC) 0.05 - 1.05 Most of residues While monitoring of mango fruits in Kanpur, Lucknow, Allahabad, Delhi, Ghaziabad (UP) showed

4. Guava: Psidium guajava Insecticide Residual Average(ppm) Dichloro Diphenyl Thricholoethane (DDT) 0.05 – 0.11 Benzene Hexa Chloride (BHC) 0.68 A high level of contamination to tune of 70% samples of Guava fruits from Lucknow, Kanpur, Allahabad

5. Sweet Lemon: Sweet limetta Insecticide Residual Average(ppm) Dichloro Diphenyl Thricholoethane (DDT) 0.02 – 0.04 Benzene Hexa Chloride (BHC) 0.15 – 0.3 Mainly in Delhi and Ghaziabad markets

6. Apple: Matus domestica Insecticide Residual Average(ppm) Dichloro Diphenyl Thricholoethane (DDT) 0.92 – 1.8 Benzene Hexa Chloride (BHC) 3.24 Thio -Carbamate fungicide 1 - 8 Mainly Dube and Nath reported 85% Apple samples of solan markets contaminated with residues of fungicide

7. Grape: Vitis vinifera Samples were reported contaminated from markets of Lucknow, Kanpur and Allahabad Insecticide Residual Average(ppm) Malathion 0.4 – 2.0 BHC 3 – 6 Dichloro Diphenyl Thricholoethane (DDT) 0.125 Endrin & Lindane 0.04 Methyl Parathion 1 – 2 Benzene Hexa Chloride (BHC) 0.05 – 1.23

8. Sapota: Manilkava zapota Insecticide Residual Average(ppm) Dichloro Diphenyl Thricholoethane(DDT) 0.55 – 1.10 Benzene Hexa Chloride (BHC) 0.075 Delhi – Ghaziabad markets were found contaminated more DDT and BHC than Parbhani market

9. Detection of residues in fruits: Some of the methods for residue detection in fruits are Method Validation Chromatography Analysis Ultraviolent Spectroscopy Electrochemical detectors In daily life we can get rid of pesticide residue by rinsing, rubbing or scrubbing fruits at home to help pesticide residue
