The determination of organochlorine pesticide residues (PP-DDT, endosulfan, endrin, PP-DDD, OP-DDE, OP-DDD, Aldrin, Heptachlor- epoxide, heptachlor, d-HCH, a-HCH, g-HCH, dieldrin, PP-DDE, and methoxychlor) carried out by GC-µECD. The results indicated that the concentrations of pesticide residues monitored was below the permissible limits according to the World Health Organization (2011). Therefore, it is recommended to preserve the water of the Nile River by not dumpling sewage, agricultural and industrial waste without treatment in the Nile water and using pesticides in good way.
