Spectrophotometric method for the determination of phenol in the sample of locally fruits apple, pear, sweet orange and vegetable were squeezed, filtered and decolorized with charcoal. The antipyrite dye formed by reaction between phenol and 4-aminoantipyrite was analyzed. The calibration graphs were prepared in the range of 0.5 to 4 ppm of phenol. Phenol in apple, pear and sweet orange was found to be in the range of 1-1.2 ppm and in radish was found to be 0.5 ppm. Possible sources of organic Pollutant were pointed out and were discussed. Limit of detection of the method was investigated and was found to be 0.2smg/ml.
