ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to investigate the status of organochlorine pesticide residues in 186 ginseng samples collected in Jilin, People's Republic of China. Based on the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 method for detection of organochlorine pesticide residues in ginseng, 22 organochlorine pesticide residues were identified. Chlordane, aldrin, epichlorohydrin, and dieldrin and their isomers were not detected in ginseng from this region. Heptachlor was detected in only one ginseng sample, and the concentration did not exceed the maximum residual limit (MRL) prescribed in the Pharmacopoeia (0.05 mg/kg). Benzene hexachloride was detected in two samples, one of which was above the MRL. Hexachlorobenzene and pentachloronitrobenzene (quintozene) were found in 11.8 and 52.1% of the samples, respectively, and the residues in these samples exceeded the MRL by 4.3 and 8.6%, respectively.

The Individual

Abstract A method is described for the determination of organochlorine pesticide residues in human gallstones. The difficulty caused by the presence of large amounts of cholesterol in the stones is overcome by an acetylation step in the "clean-up" procedure, and the method finishes with identification and determination of the individual pesticides by gas-liquid chromatography. Results are given for 28 samples submitted by 2 hospitals, showing small amounts of dieldrin, p,p'-dichlorodiphenylethane (pp'-DDE), and benzene hexachloride (BHC) isomers to be commonly present in small amounts in gallstones. Some explanation for the presence of these residues in the stones is given. A case of suspected poisoning by these compounds showed an unusually large amount of dieldrin in the patient's stones.
