Abstract

Pesticides used in agriculture enter the food chain, because of their chemical stability persist and their accumulation in different media in regions where they are used regularly. Their high solubility in the fat means that they can be found in the chicken eggs through poultry feed. The present study, aimed to determine the levels of pesticide residues in eggs in 36 composite samples of chicken eggs at twelve sale points distributed between the six communes of the District of Bamako. The samples were extracted and analyzed in the laboratory by gas chromatography to determine the residues of four organochlorine pesticides. The results showed that 58% of eggs sold in Bamako are contaminated by organochlorine pesticides. The average concentrations of the pesticides detected and quantified was respectively 0.52 mg/Kg ± 0.05 for DDT, 0.15 mg/Kg ± 0.04 for endosulfan ?, 0.23 mg/Kg ± 0, 03 for ? endosulfan and 0.02 mg/Kg ± 0.01 for dieldrin. DDT was the most encountered pesticide in 53% of the samples, Endosulfan A and Endosulfan B were encountered in 36% and the lowest dosed dieldrin with less than 6% of the egg samples analysed. The feed for laying hens is largely made up of the following three ingredients: maize, fishmeal and cottonseed cake which are highly exposed to contamination by pesticides. These average levels of three residues identified in the egg samples are well above the maximum residue limit (MRL) and therefore unacceptable for consumption because they are already prohibited pesticides.
