DETERMINATION OF PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN POMEGRANATES GROWN IN ANTALYA AND HEALTH RISK ASSESSMENT

Öz

Pesticide residues were screened in samples collected from pomegranate orchards in Antalya, Türkiye, and the health risks of such residues for consumers were assessed in this study. Analytical method verification was conducted to determine 260 pesticide residues by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). A total of 54 pomegranate samples were analyzed using this method. Ten of pomegranate samples contained pesticide residues above European Union Maximum Residue Limits (EU-MRLs). Both buprofezin and tebuconazole were detected in two of these samples, acetamiprid in three, tebuconazole in two, deltamethrin in two, and chlorpyrifos in one. In the risk assessment, deltamethrin has the potential for chronic toxicity for consumers, and chlorpyrifos shows both acute and chronic toxicity risks.

ANTALYA'DA YETİŞTİRİLEN NARLARDA PESTİSİT KALINTILARININ BELİRLENMESİ VE SAĞLIK RİSK DEĞERLENDİRMESİ

Öz

Antalya ili nar bahçelerinden toplanan numunelerde pestisit kalıntıları taranmış ve bu kalıntıların tüketiciler için oluşturduğu sağlık riskleri değerlendirilmiştir. Sıvı kromatografi-tandem kütle spektrometresi (LC–MS/MS) ile 260 pestisit kalıntısının belirlenmesi için analitik metot doğrulaması yapılarak, Antalya ilinden toplanan 54 nar numunesi analiz edilmiştir. 10 nar numunesinde Avrupa Birliği Maksimum Kalıntı Limitlerinin (AB-MRL) aştığı belirlenmiştir. Bunlarda ikisinde buprofezin ve tebuconazole, üçünde acetamiprid, ikisinde tebuconazole, ikisinde deltamethrin ve birinde ise chlorpyrifos tespit edilmiştir. Tespit edilen pestisitlere yönelik risk değerlendirmesinde deltamethrin kalıntı değerlerinin tüketiciler için kronik toksisite potansiyeline sahip olduğu, chlorpyrifos kalıntı değerinin ise hem akut hem kronik toksisite riski gösterdiği belirlenmiştir.
