Fruit samples of winter fruits (apple, grapes, banana cheeku, papaya, lemon) for pesticide residues employing a multiresi due analysis by gas liquid chromatography. All the fruit samples showed the presence of residues with one or other group of pesticides. Some samples exceeded the quantification limit. The increasing interest in the pesticides in fruit samples is justified from the enological point of view. In this paper pesticide mobility on fruit samples was studied. Out of nine pesticides tested for most of the sample show very high levels of malathion, while other pesticides residues are with in the established tolerance, BHC endosulphan dieldrin are with in limits. Thus consumer in take of pesticides from fruit samples studied in this work should be reduced by washing fruits with water. In this paper multi residue determination of pesticides are discussed using GLC.HNMR.IR.
