New type of pesticide found in Chinese-made dumplings
TOKYO, Japan - A new type of toxic organophosphate pesticide has been detected in ''gyoza'' dumplings (shown in photo) made by Tianyang Food in China's Hebei Province. The Japanese Consumers' Cooperative Union said the dumplings produced on June 3 last year contained organophosphate pesticide called dichlorvos with a high concentration of 110 parts per million in the dough and 0.42 ppm in ingredients -- levels that affect consumers' health if they eat two pieces.
