Abstract: In the present study, the effects of different processing conditions on carbendazim residue in canned citrus during prenatal, middle and postpartum phase were studied. It was shown that the residual amount of carbendazim in citrus was increased first and then decreased with the prolonged storage time. During the production, acid process or alkali treatment showed the best carbendazim removal effect. After process, carbendazim residue in the canned citrus remained stable. It was concluded that the canning process could effectively remove carbendazim from citrus flesh, and the removal rate of carbendazim residue could be enhanced by increasing the amount of acid, alkali and washing water during production.
