Monitoring of organochlorine pesticide residues level in raw market milk in Sharkia province, Egypt was carried out. A total of 50 random market raw milk samples were collected for detection of organochlorine pesticide residues using electron capture detector gas chromatography, The achieved results from this study revealed that pesticide residues which most often found in examined milk samples were oc-HCH, 7-HCH
and Heptachlor P-P-DDE, P-P-DDD, P-P-DDT, "lindane",
Heptachlorepoxide, while residues of dieldrin could be detected in a few number of samples, on the other hand residues of aldrin could not be detected in all examined samples. The detected levels of organochlorine pesticide residues were compared with maximum residues limits of FAO/WHO.Moreover, the public health importance of such toxic residues and suggestive control measures to safe guard human health were discussed.
