Several samples of commercial grade honey collected from different parts of tennessee during the summer of 1973 were analyzed for chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticide (CHI) residues. A "Modified Mill's Procedure" was used to cleanup the samples prior to gas chromatographic analysis using electron capture (EC) detection. The presence of CHI residues was confirmed by analysis on three different columns of widely varying polarity. Most of the samples contained CHI residues at 0.01-0.30 parts per billion (ppb) level. Beeswax produced during the same season contained several times higher levels of the residue than the honey samples. Recoveries of CHI residues varied from 81-95 percent by the procedure employed.
对1973年夏季从田纳西州不同地区采集的多个商业级蜂蜜样本进行了氯化烃杀虫剂（CHI）残留分析。在使用电子捕获（EC）检测进行气相色谱分析之前，采用“改良米尔程序”对样本进行净化处理。通过在三根极性差异很大的不同色谱柱上进行分析，证实了CHI残留的存在。大多数样本中CHI残留量在十亿分之0.01 - 0.30（ppb）水平。同一季节生产的蜂蜡中该残留量比蜂蜜样本高出数倍。采用的方法对CHI残留的回收率在81% - 95%之间。
