Susceptibilities of american cockroach, Periplaneta americana to insecticides according to application methods

Susceptibility of Periplaneta americana male adults to 61 commercial insecticides was evaluated by diet dipping method. Among them eight insecticides of dichlorvos, benfuracarb, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, fenpropathrin, $\zeta$-cypermethrin, $\lambda$-cyhalothrin and fipronil showed 100% mortality. The insect was more susceptible to dichlorvos and fenpropathrin in filter paper contact method than in diet dipping one, but benfuracarb was vice versa. Toxicities of the seven chemicals were evaluated by application parts of the such as head, thorax, abdomen, and legs. Dichlorvos, benfuracarb and $\lambda$-cyhalothrin were more toxic when applied to head, and deltamethrin, fenpropathrin and cypermethrin were abdomen. $LT_{50}$ values by diet dipping method showed that dichlorvos, benfuracarb and $\lambda$-cyhalothrin acted more rapidly than boric acid and hydramethylnon. The values of the former three were 0.10, 0.29 and 0.12 days, and those of the latter two were 6.2 and 4.8 days, respectively.

이질바퀴에 대한 처리방법에 따른 살충제 감수성

시판되고 있는 61종 살충제와 바퀴전문약제 2종에 대한 식이법으로 이질바퀴 (Periplaneta americana) 수컷성충의 우수 살충제를 탐색하고, 활성이 있는 약제를 이용하여 처리부위와 검정법에 따른 감수성 차이와 발현속도를 비교하였다. 식이법에서 100%의 살충률을 나타낸 dichlorvos, benfuracarb, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, fenpropathrin, $\zeta$-cypermethrin, $\lambda$-cyhalothrin, fipronil등 8종 약제를 선발하여, 식이법과 여지접촉법으로 살충력을 비교한 결과, dichlorvos와 fenpropathrin은 여지접촉법에서, benfuracarb는 식이법에서 더 높은 감수성을 나타내었다. 미량국소처리법으로 처리부위 (머리, 가슴, 배, 다리)에 따른 약제비교에서는 dichlorvos, benfuracarb, $\lambda$-cyhalothrin은 머리에서, deltamethrin, cypermethrin, fenpropathrin은 배에서 감수성이 가장 높았다. Dichlorvos, benfuracarb, $\lambda$-cyhalothrin의 $LT_{50}$ (일)은 각각 0.10, 0.29, 0.12로 속효성이었으며, boric acid와 byamethylnon은 각각 6.2와 4.8로 지효성이었다.
