Research Abstract	Since enforcement of positive list system on May 2006, how to monitor the unexpected contamination of pesticide has been an important issue. Here, we tried to develop the simple and moderate system to monitor the pesticide residues using the biological response in farmed fish. In this study, we found the possibility that the level of MDR1 protein was the potential biomarker to monitor organochlorine pesticide residues in tilapia.
