Pesticides are used in primary agricultural production, food industry, transportation and households. The presence of harmful pesticide residues in or on food has caused a great concern among the consumers. The aim of our research was to investigate the presence of malathion, heptachlor and lindane in raw fruit and vegetables. The total of 40 samples (apples, cabbages, onion, potatoes) was analyzed using gas chormatography. The content of pesticide residue in analyzed samples was 0.0001-0.0009, 0.0321- 0.0813 and 0.1348-2.2426 mg/kg for heptachlor, lindane and malathion respectively. The average contents of lindane were detected at levels 0.0578, 0.0511, 0.0573 and 0.0562 mg/kg in onion, cabbage, potato and apple, respectively. The average contents of malathion were detected at levels 0.2392, 0.2757, 0.2510 and 1.399 mg/kg in onion, cabbage, apple and potato, respectively. The average contents of heptachlor were detected at levels 0.0004, 0.00038, 0.0004 and 0.00047 mg/kg in onion, cabbage, apple and potato, respectively. In the paper was discussed the raw material quality in sense of chemical hazards in the processing of food associated to detected pesticide in raw vegetables and fruit.
