AB  - The concentrations of organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides and 
      metabolites were investigated in chicken kidney, liver and muscle samples 
      obtained from chickens collected from four poultry farms in Dar es Salaam and 
      Pwani regions in Tanzania. The samples were extracted by solid dispersion using 
      cyclohexane:ethyl acetate. The extracts were cleaned by adsorption column 
      chromatography. The analytes were determined using gas chromatography-mass 
      spectrometry (GC-MS). The concentrations of total DDT, total endosulfan and total 
      HCHs in the samples ranged from 0.71 to 26, 0.3 to 7.9 and 0.02-10.4 mg/kg lipid 
      weight (lw), respectively. The highest concentrations of aldrin, dieldrin, 
      chlorpyrifos, fenitrothion and pirimiphos methyl were 5.5, 4.8, 9.7, 5.6 and 
      7.8 mg/kg lw, respectively. The highest concentrations of the contaminants were 
      found in the kidney and liver samples. The sites in Dar es Salaam showed the 
      highest concentrations of the compounds. Most of the concentrations were above 
      the maximum residue limits (MRLs) indicating risks and concerns for livestock and 
      public health.
