Abstract
A multiresidue method was developed for the estimation of 15 organochlorine pesticides in water. 50 samples of drinking water supplied by the Municipal Corporation to the residential areas of Delhi and 20 ground water samples from nearby villages used for irrigation were monitored for the presence of organochlorine insecticides by the method developed. Although, organochlorine pesticides were detected in the ground water and irrigation water samples, the levels of pesticides were below the Maximum Contaminant Level as prescribed by WHO. No organochlorine insecticides were detected in any of the drinking water samples.Entities:
