ABSTRACT

Total 60 buffalo milk samples were collected from the different regions of district Jalgaon, Maharashtra and it was monitored for the presence of pesticide residues. Analysis of pesticides was performed by using multiresidue method which is validated in laboratory. The identification and quantification of the pesticides e.g. Chlorpyrifos, Cyhalothrin, Cypermethrin, Dichlorvos, Dimethoate, Deltramethrin, Profenofos, Quinolphos, Trizophos, and Phorate have done in the present review. The analysis was done by using the GC- ECD by which degree of contamination could be determined. The analysis showed some of the milk samples were contaminated by pesticides. About 10 % of the milk samples were contaminated with pesticide residues. Dichlorvos was most significantly found the milk sample. Chlorpyrifos was also found in the milk sample which was the measurable amount of pesticide residues; this detection of pesticides was recommended by Codex. Phorate was also found in traces amount. Other pesticides were found below detection limit. The presence of these pesticides residues are harmful for the human health, the monitored data of the presence of pesticides residues in milk may assist for awareness for farmers and local peoples as well as in future scientific assessment.
