ResumoVARIOUS research workers Naber and Ware (1961), Draper et al. (1950, 1952) Ivey et al. (1961) and Liska et al. (1964) have reported residues of chlorinated insecticides in tissues and eggs of chickens exposed to these insecticides. This exposure can occur through spraying of the environment or through consumption of feed which contains insecticide residues. The producer has direct control over the use of sprays in the environment of the chickens. He may, however, purchase considerable amounts of feed of unknown history. Liska et al. (1964) reported that small residues present in feed caused significant residues in tissues and eggs. More information is needed on the persistence of chlorinated insecticides in the tissues and eggs of chickens consuming low levels of insecticides for a short period of time as might be the case from a shipment of contaminated feed. This research was performed to determine the length of time…
