Abstract
Honey samples (101) from Galicia (N.W. Spain) were analyzed by gas chromatography (electron capture and flame ionization) for the presence of acaricides (amitraz, bromopropylate, coumaphos, and fluvalinate). Seventy-three samples were free from detectable residues. Bromopropylate residues were found in 16 samples in levels ranging from 5 to 60 μ/kg. Fluvalinate residues were found in 11 samples in levels ranging from 10 to 40 μ/kg. One sample contained 100 μg of fluvalinate per kg. Neither amitraz nor coumaphos residues were detected.
