The distribution o nine pesticides between the juice and pulp of carrots and tomatoes after home processing

摘要

The distribution of nine pesticides between the juice and pulp of carrots and tomatoes during home culinary practices was investigated. Tomato and carrot pulp contained a higher percentage of all pesticide residues, except for mancozeb in tomatoes. Although there was a difference in the relative distribution of the pesticides between the commodities with greater amounts present in the pulp of tomatoes, the pesticides followed a similar trend in both. A relationship between the pulp|juice distribution and water solubility of the pesticide was apparent.
