The objective of this study was to identify pesticides found in infants' and children's diets. Fruits and vegetables were collected from 2004 to 2007 and analyzed using a multiresidue method. The most frequently detected residues were procymidone, captan, chlorpyrifos and chlorothalonil. Twenty-eight percent of the samples contained pesticide residues. Strawberry, pear, apple, peach and tomato contained pesticide levels of concern. Twenty-one pesticides were found with the estimated total mean daily intake greater than the acceptable daily intake for four of the pesticides. Residues of carbaryl, diazinon and methidathion exceeded regulatory levels in (apple, strawberry, and orange). |
