A total of 220 samples of 94 cereals and pulses, and 126 herbs and aromatic plants samples were collected from different Egyptian local markets located in eight governorates (Cairo, Giza, Gharbiya, Minufiya, Sharkiya, Benisuef, Ismalia, and Qalyubiya) dUring 2007 and subjected to inorganic bromide residues analysis. The detected residues were compared with maximum residue limits (MRL's) established by Codex Alimentarius Commission (1993b). Overall, 69.6% of 220 total number of samples analyzed were contaminated with inorganic bromide residues, of which 6.8% exceeded the MRL's. In spite of the herbs and aromatic medicinal plants recorded the highest contamination percentage (94.4%), no exceeding of the levels of inorganic bromide above the MRL's estabUshed by the Codex Alimentarius Committee (400 mg kg⁻¹\ The mean concentration ranged from 2.93 to 44.5 mg kg⁻¹.
