dc.description.abstractABSTRACT : A study was conducted to estimate certain pesticides (DDT-Dichloro diphenyl trichloroethane, HCH - Hexachloro cyclo hexane and Cyclodiene compounds - aldrin, α endosulfan, β endosulfan, endosulfan sulfate and heptachlor) and heavy metals (lead and cadmium) residues in muscle and organs of chicken (broiler), buffalo, goat, sheep and pig collected from Hyderabad city. The effect of cooking methods on endosulfan level in spiked buffalo meat samples were also studied. The residues of organochlorine pesticides and heavy metals were found in majority of the analysed muscle and organs samples of food animals. The contamination pattern of organochlorine pesticides residues in tissues among common food animal species were in the descending order of p,p’DDE, γ HCH, α endosulfan, p,p’DDT, aldrin, β endosulfan, δ HCH, β HCH, α HCH, p,p’DDD and endosulfan sulfate. However, the levels of contamination were quite low and well below the maximum residue level. Amongst various species of food animals, tissue samples of buffalo showed highest mean concentration for p,p’DDD, α ,β, γ and δ HCH and endosulfan sulfate residues, whereas pig samples showed highest residues level for p,p’DDE, p,p’DDT, α endosulfan and β endosulfan. Among tissues, muscle showed highest concentration of p,p’DDD, p,p’DDT, β HCH, aldrin, α endosulfan, β endosulfan and endosulfan sulfate, whereas liver showed highest mean concentration for γ HCH and δ HCH. The concentration of p,p’DDE and α HCH residues were highest in kidney samples. Pressure cooking of meat resulted in significant reduction in the residual level of endosulfan. In case of heavy metal residues, tissue samples of buffalo showed highest mean concentration for lead, whereas chicken samples showed highest residues level for cadmium. Among tissues, kidney showed highest concentrations of both lead and cadmium. From the study, it can be concluded that the contamination levels of pesticides and heavy metals residues in muscle and organs were well below the maximum residue level and present no threat to public health on the basis of current toxicological knowledge. Moreover, substantial reduction in pesticide level due to cooking, especially pressure cooking reduces the risk to meat consumer.en_US
