Risk Evaluation of Pollutant in Common Melon Vegetables
Melon vegetables are commonly used in our daily consumption. A large number of pesticides and other chemical reagents applied in the cultivation process of melon vegetables would lead to pesticides residue pollution,and consequently quality and safety problems. In this study,we investigated the main diseases and pests of melon vegetables and the related control measures. In addition,we also investigated the use of pesticides,the maximum residue limit(MRL) of the pollutants and their detection methods. Combined with the statistical analysis to the recent detection results of major pollutants in melon vegetables,we identified the detection items and MRL of the major pollutants in melon vegetables. Besides,we also compared and verified the corresponding detection methods. This would be of important role in routine monitoring of the quality and safety of melon vegetables.
