background: chlorinated pesticides have been used in pest control for several decades in the world. these compounds are still applied in many regions, and their continuous usage has resulted in their bioaccumulation and residue in the food chain. these residues could transfer to food products and accumulate in fat tissues. undoubtedly, the breast milk could be a significant biomarker for estima...

A confirmatory, highly selective multi-residue method based on liquid chromatography coupled to hybrid high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-Q-Orbitrap) was developed and validated for the determination of 12 regulated coccidiostats in eggs muscle. Particularly, ionophore antibiotics (lasalocid, maduramicin, monensin, narasin, salinomycin semduramicin) synthetic (diclazuril, halofuginone, nicar...

Background and Objectives: With regard to the hazards of nitrite, application of natural preservatives in order to reduce the microbial load of meat and meat products is increasing. Owing to their anti-bacterial properties, red barberry and the dried residue of red grape could be suitable replacers for nitrite. Materials and Methods: Agar dilution method was employed in order to determine th...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of some technological processes on the residual levels of imidacloprid in strawberry fruits and products. according to their half-life (t1/2) values, strawberry fruits can be safely harvested for human consumption 7.4 days after spraying. the removal ratio of imidacloprid residue in strawberries was in the range of 9.9–30.55% by washing with t...

the aim of this study was investigation the energy flow and global warming potential (gwp) of corn farm in gorgan city. for this purpose, data were collected from three conventional planting methods (spring planting, summer planting in wheat residue and summer planting without wheat residue) by using a face-to-face questionnaire performed with farmers in summer 2012. after the required data in ...

background: pistachio is one of the main nutrients, not only as a strategic crop but also as a main type of nut, in iranians’ food cycle. the aim of this study was to measure the relative safety of iranian pistachio based on the standard pesticide’s residue limits, which should be monitored and assessed in the cultivation of pistachio in order to confirm its public health. methods: fifty sample...
