“Food safety is an assurance that a food will not cause harm to the consumer at the time of preparation and / or consumption” (Raspor, 2007)
Food security is affected by contamination by:
PHYSICAL agents (metals, glass ...)
CHEMICAL agents (toxins, residues)
Microbiological agents (bacteria)

REFERENCE STANDARDS (MRLs) -Residues pesticides-
•When placed in circulation in the EU products intended not contain pesticide residues exceeding the maximum residue limits (MRLs)
•The values of MRLs are set and evaluated for each substance at the time of their authorization

Bioaccumulation and biomagnification of POPs
BIOACCUMULATION: The lipophilic active substances tend to accumulate in the adipocytes; this mechanism is to be considered a defense mechanism of the organism
BIOMAGNIFICATION: The process by which the concentration of the pesticide in the food chain increases to climb along the food pyramid
Pesticides
Common mechanisms POPs

• OC Pesticides are a category of substances used particularly in the 50s and 60s
• Chlorinated molecules are extremely stable environmentally
• They are characterized by the phenomenon of bioaccumulation
• They are divided, according to the chemical structure into 3 classes

PCBs The concentration of all the PCBs (i.e. PCB 18, 28, 31, 44, 52, 101, 118, 138,149,180,194) were higher in samples obtained from Pagellus bogaraveo, whereas PCB 31, 52, 101, 118, 138, 180, 194 reached the minimum mean concentration in Dentex dentex, and PCB 18, 28, 44, 149 were present at lower levels in samples obtained from Thunnus thynnus. Pesticides Fish tissue analysis revealed maximum concentration of sum endosulfan (27.5), sum heptachlor (14.2), endrin aldehyde (70.25) in Thunnus thynnus, whereas sum DDT (254), sum HCH (7.56), aldrin (95.55), and endrin (3.55) were maximum in Pagellus bogaraveo and Dentex dentex respectively.

In particular, benthopelagic fishes belonging to Fam. Sparidae (i.e. Dentex dentex and Pagellus bogaraveo) and inhabit the water just above the bottom, and pelagic fishes belonging to Fam. Scombridae (i.e. Thunnus thynnus) which live and feed away from the bottom in the open water column, represent a useful indicator of pollution of the environment in which they reside, since they could be subjected to possible contaminated sources for their location and hydrological characteristics.

Fundamental work of monitoring of contaminants along supply chains (ensure the food safety for consumer)
• Methods of extraction was effective in the determination of POPs in
complex matrices (high-interference lipid matrix) in a single step (useful in routine laboratory analisys)
• muscle fish tissue is confirmed as an organ of bioaccumulation and biomagnification for OCs pesticides, PCBs and potentially for other POPs
Conclusions
