	Pesticide residue results: Veggi-Wash was tested on a number of pesticide residues namely: diphenylamine on apples, chlorpropham, tecnazene and 2,3,5,6 tetrachloranille on potatoes, dithiocar-bamate on lettuce and quinalphos on broccoli. Water has little effect on these residues since they are formulated to resist being easily washed off, various tests showed that anything between 70% and 93.5% of surface residues remain after washing. Veggi Wash performed somewhat better, reducing tecnazene levels on potatoes by between 12.9% and 45.7% (compared with a 4.3% reduction for water), chlorpropham on potatoes by 93.4% (6.7% reduction for washing in water), 2,3,5,6 tetrachloranille on potatoes by 95% (water not compared), diphenyl-amine on apples by 93.4% (water 30%), quinalphos on broccoli by between 23% and 25% (water 6.7%).
