Özet
The purpose of this article is to develop an easy analytical method to determine organochlorine pesticide and metals pollution using kashar cheese and white cheese in Kirklareli, Turkey, by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Kirklareli was selected as the study area because of its intense industry and agriculture. Organochlorine pesticides in samples were prepared for analysis using the silica with solid-phase extraction (SPE) method. Concentrations of hexachlorocyclohexane (ΣHCH), aldrin, heptachlor, dieldrin, endosulfan, methoxychlor and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (ΣDDT), Cd, Pb, Ni, Cu, Zn, Fe and Mn were determined in cheese samples collected from different points in Kirklareli. Concentrations of Pb, Ni, Cd, Heptachlor-endo-epoxide, alpha-Endosulfan and Endrin-aldehyde were not determined in cheese species. Zn>Fe>Mn>Cu concentrations were found in cheese samples.
