              Organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticide residues in fodder 
              and milk samples along Musi river belt, India,

              Abstract 
 Aim:
              The present study was conducted to find the organochlorine 
              pesticide (OCP) and organophosphorus pesticide (OPP) residues in 
              fodder and milk samples along Musi river belt, India. 
              Materials and Methods: Fodder and milk samples collected from 
              the six zones of Musi river belt, Hyderabad India were analyzed by 
              gas chromatography with electron capture detector for OCP residues 
              and pulsated flame photometric detector for the presence of OPP 
              residues. 
              Results: The gas chromatographic analysis of fodder samples of 
              Zone 5 of Musi river showed the residues of dicofol at 
              concentration of 0.07±0.0007 (0.071-0.077). Among organophosphorus 
              compounds, dimetheoate was present in milk samples collected from 
              Zone 6 at a level of 0.13±0.006 (0.111-0.167). The residues of 
              OCPs, OPPs and cyclodies were below the detection limit in the 
              remaining fodder and milk samples collected from Musi river belt 
              in the present study. 
              Conclusion: The results indicate that the pesticide residues 
              in fodder and milk samples were well below the maximum residue 
              level (MRL) values, whereas dicofol in fodder and dimethoate in 
              milk were slightly above the MRL values specified by EU and CODEX. 
              Keywords: fodder, gas chromatography, milk, 
              Musi river, pesticide residues.
