| Abstract |
A programe for inspection and monitoring dioxins in food and feed from animal origin had been started in Egypt in 1999. Samples were collected from food and feed imported shipments as well as locally produced similar items. 882 collected samples were analyzed for dioxins. The results demonstrate that the concentration of dioxins in imported, cheese, corned beef; fish and luncheon meat found in the current survey were below the LOD. Imported butter samples showed contamination range between (0.2- 0.27 pg ITEQ/g). HpCDF (Hepta polychlorinated dibenzo furan) was the dominating congener. Only one imported powder milk and one duck liver samples (7.42 and 34.05 pg 1- TEQ/g respectively) violated the maximum level proposed by the Egyptian organization for standardization. The HxCDD (Hexa polychlorinated dibenzo dioxin) and HxCDF (Hexa polychlorinated dibenzo furan) were the dominating congeners in milk powder samples. The concentration of dioxins in locally produced cheese butter and fish were less than LOD. The results of all feed samples demonstrate a low background contamination with PCDDs (poly chlorinated dibenzo dioxins) and PCDFs (poly chlorinated dibenzo furans).
