Abstract:

In order to master the quality and safety of edible fungi, the levels of 62 kinds of pesticide residues in edible fungi sold in Beijing from 2021 to 2022 were screened, the pesticide residues of insecticides and fungicides in 6 common edible fungi were evaluated by food safety index method, and the risk of chronic and acute dietary intake of 19 pesticides were also evaluated. The results showed that the IFS values of 15 insecticides and 4 fungicides detected in edible fungi and the average food safety index values of 6 edible fungi were all less than 100. The pesticide residues detected had little influence on the edible fungi, and the six edible fungi were in a good state of safety, the risk of chronic dietary intake and the risk of acute dietary intake of 19 detected pesticide residues in edible fungi were both lower than 100%, and the risk of both chronic and acute dietary intake were lower. However, the risk values of dietary intakes of two pesticides, cyromazine and emamectin benzoate, were relatively high among the 19 pesticides detected. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the supervision of the use of cyromazine and emamectin benzoate in edible fungi to ensure the quality and safety of edible fungi products.

Key words: edible fungi, pesticide residues, safety evaluation, risk assessment
