摘要

The study involved the use of soxhlet apparatus and CP-3800 Gas Chromatograph equipped with a63 Ni electron capture detector to investigate the presence and levels of organochlorine pesticide(OCP) residues in sampled parts of watermelon. The study revealed the presence of fifteen OCPsresidues in the peel, pulp and seeds of watermelon from the selected communities in the Ada-WestDistrict of the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. Most of the OCP residues investigated were belowthe limit of detection of 0.01 μg/kg. Detectable OCP residues whose concentrations were abovedetection limit were dieldrin and p, p’-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethene (p,p'–DDE). The seeds of watermelon from Koluedor recorded the highest level of 2.10 μg/kg of p’p-DDE while the lowestlevel of 0.20 μg/kg of dieldrin and p’p-DDE were recorded in the peel of watermelon from Sege.The mean levels of the detected pesticide residues in peel, pulp and seeds of watermelon werealso below maximum residue limits (MRLs) set by European Union (EU). Estimated daily intake(EDI) of organochlorine pesticide residues as a result of consumption of the studied watermelon forchildren ranged from 0.001 μg/kg to 0.006 μg/kg and those for adults were from 0.0005 μg/kg to0.003 μg/kg. EDIs values obtained were however, far below reference doses (RFDs)recommended by United State Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).
