Effect of Milk Processing Methods on Endosulfan, Endosulfan Sulfate, and Chlordane Residues in Milk

Department of Animal Sciences, Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana

ABSTRACT

Samples of milk containing endosulfan, endosulfan sulfate, or chlordane were manufactured into condensed, dried whole, and evaporated milk. The greatest loss of insecticide occurred during the manufacture of drum-dried milk. Endosulfan and endosulfan sulfate found in drum-dried milk represented a 49.7 and 70.4% decrease, respectively, of the amounts found in raw milk. The average per cent decrease of chlordane during the roller drying process was 44.9%. Chlordane was more stable to the milk-processing treatments than endosulfan or endosulfan sulfate.
