  • Title: Contamination of bovine milk with DDT and HCH residues in relation to their usage in malaria control programme.
    Author: Kapoor SK, Chawla RP, Kalra RL.
    Journal: J Environ Sci Health B; 1980; 15(5):545-57. PubMed ID: 6159389.
    Abstract:
    The contribution of spraying DDT and HCH for malaria control towards the contamination of bovine milk was investigated by analysing milk samples collected from preselected localities sprayed with either DDT or HCH in the Punjab. A direct correlation was found between the amounts of residues of these insecticides in milk and their typical usage pattern for the mosquito control programme. It is considered that these results may have significant bearing on the regulatory control of DDT and HCH residues in milk.
