Pesticide residues in crops from Podlasie region in relation to union standards.

摘要

The aim of this paper was the presentation of residue levels of pesticides in crops from Northeastern Poland in 2008 according to Polish and EU regulations. Selected differences between Polish and union MRLs values were compared. Harmonization of MRLs standards in all European Union countries since 1.09.08 caused that many MRLs values have changed. Strict limits of European Commission directive for the same active substances (etc. captan and iprodion) caused that samples with residues below MRLs from Podlasie region occurred with higher frequency.
