How to wash pesticide residues on fruits and vegetables.

1. Washing and soaking method (wash with water and soak), vegetables contaminated with pesticide varieties of the main organophosphorus insecticides, organophosphorus insecticides are difficult to dissolve in water, this method only removes some of the contaminated pesticides, but the water washing is to remove vegetables and fruits on the other dirt with the removal of pesticide residues on the basis of the method. Mainly used for leafy vegetables. Generally first rinse off the surface dirt with water, otherwise it is equal to the fruits and vegetables immersed in diluted pesticides.

Then soak in water, soak no less than 10 minutes, fruit and vegetable detergent can increase the dissolution of pesticides, so soak can be added to a small amount of fruit and vegetable detergent, diffuse soak to be rinsed with running water for 2 or 3 times.

2. After cleaning alkaline water immersion method, organophosphorus pesticides in the alkaline environment decomposition speed, so this method is effective in removing pesticide contamination measures, can be used for all types of vegetables and fruits.

3. Peeling method, the appearance of uneven or hairy vegetables and fruits, easier to contaminate pesticides, so peeling is a better way to remove residual pesticides.

4. Storage method, pesticides over time can slowly decompose into harmless substances (oxygen in the air and vegetables in the enzyme residues of pesticides have a certain degree of decomposition), so easy to save fruits and vegetables can be stored for a certain period of time to reduce the amount of pesticide residues. Generally should be stored for more than 15 days, while it is recommended not to immediately consume the newly picked unpeeled fruits and vegetables.

5. Heating method, carbamate cool insecticides with the temperature rise, decomposition accelerated, so some other methods are difficult to deal with vegetables and fruits can be heated to remove some of the pesticides. This method is commonly used in celery, spinach, cabbage, cabbage, peppers, cauliflower, beans, etc., first wash the surface pollutants with water, put into boiling water for 2-5 minutes to fish out, and then rinse with water 1-2 times.
