The paper deals with the screening analyses of apple samples with the suspicion of having been treated beyond regular protection. The extraction of pesticides was carried out by the QuEChERS method. By GC-MSD and based on DRS analyses the presence of phosalone (tR=29.73 min) and dimethoate (tR=12.78 min) was detected. According to the National Regulation MRL value for the dimethoate in apples is 0.02 mg/kg and 0.01 mg/kg for phosalone. From the above facts it can be concluded that the dimethoate value was five times higher than allowed while that of phosalone was even ten times more.
