Abstract

Abstract Total diet samples collected since August 1962 were analyzed for the presence of chlorinated organic pesticides, parathion, and 2,4-D types of herbicides and plant growth regulators. Chlorinated pesticide residues were identified by paper, gas-liquid, thinlayer, and microcoulometric gas chromatography. Parathion residues were identified by polarography and confirmed by paper chromatography. Organophosphate pesticide residues were noted in a few samples by paper chromatography. No herbicides were detected in any samples.
