Abstract
The study investigates the amount of heavy metals and pesticide residues in two widely imported fruit products to Egypt raisins and dried apricot sheets (Kamar El-deen sheets) as dried fruits, orange and grape juices as imported fruit juices. Some components were accepted according to the Egyptian Standard Specifications such as the average of moisture, dried fruits (raisins and Kamar El-deen sheets) (13.75 and 13.38%) respectively. Other products such as raisins, Kamar El-deen sheets and fruit juices showed a high lead content (0.18, 1.60 and 0.06 mg/100g) respectively. No pesticide residues were detected in Turkish raisins, Kamar El-deen from Esraa (E) factory in Syria and grape juice. Vitamin C in orange juice was much higher than that grape juice (3.26 times).
