Risk assessment of organochlorine re pesticide recidue in Nigeria cannabis sativaL.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cannabis is a versatile crop with a wide range of agricultural and industrial uses. This study aimed to investigate potential health risks associated with organochlorine pesticide residues (OCPs) and heavy metals in different parts of Cannabis sativa L. plant. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) were employed for the identification and quantification of OCPs and heavy metals, respectively. The OCPs results showed uniform presence of heptachlor (0.74-0.75 mg/kg), aldrin (0.34-0.35 mg/kg), and endosulfandiol (1.31-1.35 mg/kg) across all plant components. Endrin ketone was significantly higher in leaves (2.755 mg/kg), and p,p'-DDE was detected only in seeds (0.45 mg/kg) and blend samples (0.45 mg/kg). Concentrations of heptachlor, aldrin, endrin ketone, and p,p'-DDE exceeded Health Canada's Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs). Conversely, endosulfandiol levels remained within regulatory thresholds, and trans-Chlordane, 4,7-methanoindene, and methoxychlor were below detection limits in all plant parts. The health risk assessment, evaluated using estimated daily intake (EDI), hazard index (HI), and target hazard quotient (THQ) metrics, revealed that while most pesticide residues posed minimal health risks (HI < 1). THQ values for all analyzed pesticides were below 1.0, indicating low risk of non-cancer health effects.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
