Abstract

Investigations in India on certain varieties of green leafy vegetables revealed very high BHC residues. The significance of certain common processing techniques in reducing the residue level on the raw material was investigated. Cooking in water for 5 min and immersion of the sample in 1% acetic acid solution and subsequent cooking reduced the level to within the permissible limit.
