description This study was conducted to assess the environmental contamination of DDT in the Eloor Industrial area. Samples like fodder, sludge and water were collected from the area and analysed for its DDT content using Gas Liquid Chromatography and these values were compared with the DDT content in the samples collected from Mannuthy area. On analysis it was found that the DDT level in fodder, sludge and water collected form Eloor Industrial area were 1.567 0.947 ppm, 48.295 ± 31.85 ppm and 0.000245 ± 0.00084 ppm respectively. The corresponding values from Mannuthy area were 0.062 ± 0.021.0.011 ± 0.006 and 0.000082 ± 0.0007 ppm. These observations indicate a significant environmental contamination with DDT in Eloor Industrial Area.
