samples of Anatolian water buffalo ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:14px;">Bubalus bubalis </span> </i> <span style="font-size:14px;">, Linneaus, 1758)
belonging to different dairy farmers in the Kızılırmak Delta in Samsun, Turkey,
were investigated for contamination by 9 organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and
16 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The contaminants were extracted
cryogenically from the milk fat and their concentrations were determined with a
gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC-ECD). The mean level of
alpha-hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) in the milk samples was 6.34 ng/g </span> <sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">/ </span> </sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">fat,
beta-HCH was 20.41 ng/g/fat, gamma-HCH was 9.77 ng/g/fat, ∑DDTs was 18.11
ng/g/fat and ∑Indicator-PCBs was 127.27 ng/g/fat. The mean values, except for
aldrin and ∑DDTs, were above the maximum residue limits (MRLs) stated in the
European Commission (EC) Regulations and Turkish Food Codex (TFC). R </span> </span> <span style="font-family:Garamond, serif;letter-spacing:-.15pt;"> <span style="font-size:14px;">egular monitoring and reporting of the levels of
