An attempt was made to determine the residual distribution of organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides in the various kinds of Korean tea which were purchased form the maket. The organochlorine pesticides investigated in this study were BHC, DDT and dicofol and the organophoshorus pesticides were diazinon, EPN, fenitrothion and parathion. The pesticide residues were determined by GC-ECD and BHC was detected in all the samples and it's level were ranged from 0.00064 po 0.05995 ppm and it's average was 0.00682 ppm and DDT, dicofol and organophosphorus pesticides were not detected in all samples. The organophophorus pesticides were detected(0.0035∼0.0983 ppm) in raw materials but were not in the manufactured material and it is considered that the largely components of the pesticides is removed by drying and high temperature while the tea was manufactured. The recovery tests of the pesticides gave satisfactory results showing an average yield of 97.6% with organochlorine pesticides and 92.5% with organophoshorus pesticides and the detection limits level were 0.00008 ppm to 0.0010 ppm.

During the period of March, 1976 to December, 1976, 48 raw milk samples were taken from dairy cows at 48 different dairy farms in Korea analyzed by gas liquid chromatography to determine the seasonal variation of the amount of organochlorine pesticide residues. At the same time 80 market milk, 10 beef and 10 pork samples were analyed by the same procedure for checking residual levels. The results were summarized as follows; 1. Milk samples from 17 dairy farms (36 per cent of tatal) were shown to be contaminated with various organochlorine pesticides. The residua lrate of ${\gamma}-BHC$ in tested samples were 44per cent (14 sam ples) that of aldrine was 28 per cent (9 samples) and those of pp'-DDT, dieldrin and heptachlor were 9.3 percent (3 samples) respectively. 2. In raw milk pp'-DDT, ${\gamma}-BHC$, aldrin, dieldrin and heptachlor were detected, and aldrin, dieldrin and heptachlor were detected in the market milk. Any kinds of organochlorine pesticides were not detected in beef samples but dieldrin and heptachlor were detected in pork samples. Average residual values of aldrin, dieldrin and heptachlor in the market milk were 0.0077 ppm (0.0000~1.1100 ppm), 0.0001ppm (0.0000~0.0500 ppm) and 0.0008 ppm (0.0000~2.0520 ppm), respectively, and those of dieldrin and heptachlor in pork samples were 0.0010 ppm (0.0000~0.0100 ppm) and 0.0033 ppm (0.0000~0.0330 ppm). respectively. 3. Residues of organochlorine pesticides in raw milk were extremely variable; in fact pp'-DDT was detected in milk samples from A, B, C and D districts and endrin was not detected from all districts. The ${\gamma}-BHC$ and dieldrin were detected at the district of A, C and D, aldrin at the districts of A and C and heptachlor at the districts of both A and D. 4. Seasonal trends of residual values of organochlorine pesticides were, in general, noticeable. The residual level was much higher in Spring than in other seasons and showed the tendeney of decrease from spring through summer and autumn generally; in the case of pp'-DDT average residual values were 0.0121 ppm in spring, 0.0022 ppm in summer and not detected in autumn. But in winter ${\gamma}-BHC$ and aldrin residues were increased a little. Residual values in raw milk (when cow are fed on hay and silage) were appeared higher in winter than the other seasons. 5. Residues of organochlorine pesticides in raw milk were not related in respect to hygienic conditions of dairy farms pp'-DDT and heptachlor were, in general, detected in all farms and aldrin was more detected in milk from well sanitated farms than poor sanitated ones.

This study was carried out to determine the 11 organochlorine, 7 organophosphorus residual pesticides in 251 crude drugs. These residual pesticides in herbal drugs were extracted with acetonitrile and the extracts were cleaned up via LC-florisil solid phase extraction column. The prepared samples were assayed for pesticide residues using GC-ECD, NPD with capillary column and identified by GC-MSD. Recoveries were $63.9{\sim}111.5%$ in the organochlorine pesticides and $69.8{\sim}92.4%$ in the organophosphorus pesticides, and detection limits were $0.001{\sim}0.65\;ppm$ in the organochlorine pesticides and $0.0009{\sim}0.0074\;ppm$ in the organophosphorus pesticides. Pesticide residues were detected in 9 cases.

Six organophosphorus, one organochlorine, and three synthetic pyrethroid pesticides were analyzed for their residues during washing and hot-air drying of red peppers conducted in the production of powder. The residue ratio in organophosphorus pesticides was 33% in chlorpyrifos, 31 % in diazinon, 50% in methidathion, 80% in EPN, 28% in fenitrothion, and 60% in profenofos. The ratio in pyrethroids was 109% in cypermethrin, 102% in deltamethrin, and 106% in fenvalerate. That in organochlorine was 56% in ${\alpha}$-endosulfan and 90% in ${\beta}$-endosulfan. The results were greatly different between organophosphorus and pyrethroid pesticides. UV irradiation along with hot-air drying brought about a remarkable reduction of the residues, up to 70% as compared with hot-air drying only. The removal effect was most remarkable in pyrethroids, which are hardly removed by hot-air drying. The color of the pepper was not changed during UV irradiation. The use of oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide or chlorine dioxide during washing did not show a remarkable removal of residues. The residue ratio was not affected whether the pesticide is contaminated artificially or naturally.

Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) interfere with gas chromatographic analysis of multiple organochlorine pesticide residues. In the present work, existing Florisil column chromatographic method has been modified as to improve separation of organochlorine pesticides and their metabolites from PCBs. It was amply demonstrated that separation of $\alpha-BHC,\; \gamma-BHC$ Heptachlor epoxide Dieldrin, p.p-DDD, p.p'-DDT from PCBs such as Aroclor 1254 is complete and recovery of the pesticides is found quantitative. Aldrin and Heptachlor in the Aroclor eluant can be separately analyzed by comparison of the chromatographic pattern of standard Aroclor 1254 with that of Aroclor 1254 a dmixed with the two pesticides. The Florsil column technique can be utilized in the routine evaluation of the organochlorine pesticide residues by gas chromatography.

In order to investigate the level of pesticide residues in the vegetables for Kimchi materials (Chinese cabbage, radish, red pepper, garlic and cucumber), which were produced in Andong district, organochlorine and organophosphur pesticide residues were analyzed using gas chromatography. The results were as follows; 1) In chinese cabbage, radish and some other vegetables harvested in early summer (June), organochlorine and organophosphur pesticide residues were detected in almost all of the samples tested, and a few of them showed a level higher than the organochlor APR(allowable pesticide residues). 2) Heptachlor, the soil insecticide was the most abundantly detected pesticide among the four organochlorine pesticides tested (Dieldrin, Endrin, BHC, Heptachlor) in this study. 3) Somewhat higher concentrations of organochlorine pesticides were detected in all kinds of sample vegetables harvested in late summer than in those harvested in early summer. And the frequency of organochlorine pesticide contamination was also increased, but the frequency of organophosphur pesticide contamination was decreased. 4) In the vegetable harvested in late autumn, level of organochlorine pesticide residues and frequency of contamination were markedly decreased and organophosphur pesticide residues (Diaginon, Malathion, Thiometon, EPN) were rarely detected. 5) The results of this study indicates that to take a lot of vegitables grown in summer was somewhat uncomfortable than those grown in autumn.

A simple, fast, inexpensive method hal been developed to extract organochlorine pesticide spiked in fish tissues by supercritical carbon dioxide. Following static supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), pesticides are collected by rapidly depressurizing the carbon dioxide effluent through a 0.79 mm i.d. metering valve into a capped screw-top tube. Percent recovers of standard organochlorine pesticides mixture (SOPM) increased with the decrease of the extraction temperature at 103 bar. Maximum average percent recovery of SOPM was 98% at $40^{\circ}C/172\;bar$ Average recoveries of SOPM spiked in Pacific cod, flatfish and common squid were 85,74,and 83% respectively at $40^{\circ}C/172\;bar$ Application of supercritical carbon dioxide ectraction offers and attractive alternative to the use of organic solvents for extraction of organochlorine pesticides from fish tissues.
