Storage study of some post and pre harvest pesticide Residues in Orange Fruit

Abstract: Four weeks storage study was conducted for three orange lots to check .the pesticide residues loss percentages. The results showed that dimethoate mean level 0.16 ± 0.095 ppm disappeared after only tow weeks and fenetrothion 0.2 ppm loss was percentages 75 % after four weeks storage. The post harvest pesticide residues mean levels for sodium ortho phenyl phenate (SOPP), imazalil and thiabendazole (TBZ) were 4.7 ± 0.057, 2.73 ± 0.66 and 2.8± 0.18 ppm and the storage loss percentages were 50.36 ± 7.69, 44.65 ± 6.6 and 39.53 ± 3.81 respectively after four-week storage. The purpose of this storage study is to identify pesticide residues contaminating treated and incoming orange raw materials to a company for food manufacturing and processors.
