Three major hazards of pesticide residues in vegetables

Vegetable pesticide residues are a problem of many people's relations. So what are the hazards of vegetable pesticide residues? The following is a detailed analysis of the pesticide residues in vegetables by the Xiaobian of the Pesticide Information Network .

At present, there are mainly three types of pesticide residues in Chinese vegetables:

One is organophosphorus pesticides. As a neurotoxic substance, it can cause symptoms such as neurological disorders, tremors, confusion, and language disorders.

The second is pyrethroid pesticides. Toxicity is generally large, accumulating, and symptoms of poisoning are neurological symptoms and skin irritation.

The third is organochlorine pesticides such as 666 and DDT. After entering the human body with food and other means, organochlorine pesticides mainly accumulate in adipose tissue, followed by liver, kidney, spleen and brain, and the lowest in blood. Organochlorine pesticides are also found in human milk. The organochlorine pesticides in the mother can not only be excreted from the milk, but also enter the fetus through the placenta, causing lesions in the next generation.

At present, the International Codex Alimentarius stipulates that there are 2,439 pesticide residue limits in 375 foods. The self-determined standards in China are quite different. Take the organochlorine pesticide residue standard as an example: China's current standard was formulated in the 1970s to solve the high residue level at that time. In this way, the daily intake of ADI value of DVI and DDT in China's residents from the dietary intake. Although it is in line with China's food hygiene standards, it is far higher than the developed countries. The intake of 666 is 80 times that of the United States and 15 times that of Japan. The intake of DDT is 16 times that of Australia and 24 times that of the United States and Japan.
