Abstract:
The application of pesticides to crops can pollute the soil, air water and also the flowers from which bees collect nectar for honey production, which can lead to the presence of those toxic chemicals in the food chain, affecting the health of both humans and bee families. The detection of pesticide residues was carried out by chromatographic method from honey samples exposed for analysis. Physico-chemical indices of honeys from Sample 1 meet the legislative requirements for - Natural honey, but the water content in honey from Sample 2 is 2%higher than the norms in force, according to HG1191 of 23.12.10, RS, chapter III, point 8, subpoint b, de factoIn the honey samples submitted for examination the residues of aldrin, dieltrin,endosulfan, Heptachlor and HCH were lower < 0.01, which denotes that they are within the maximum permissible limits.
