Pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables from Islamabad market, Pakistan, were determined by gas liquid chromatography using a Perkin Elmer Autosystem equipped with 63NECD and capillary column. Dimethoate was determined at 0.032 mg kg-1 in apple, 0.110 mg kg-1 in banana, 0.004 mg kg-1 in brinjal . Fenvalerate was determined at 0.010 mg kg-1 in apple and chlorpyrifos at 0.004 mg kg-1 in aubergine. The importance of these pesticide residues for human health is briefly discussed.
