국내에서 사용중인 농약에 대한 농민의 농약 노출량 및 양상을 조사하고자 내분비계 장애 물질로 추정되는 Mancozeb의 살포 시 작업자의 피부 노출량 및 호흡 노출량 측정을 감귤농장에서 실시하였다. 피부노출 측정은 Patch법(50$\textrm{cm}^2$)을 사용하였고 손 노출은 순면장갑을 사용하였다. 호흡노출은 XAD-2 resin 흡착제와 Personal air monitor(2L/min)를 이용, 측정하였다. Mancozeb 분석은 CS$_2$법을 이용하였고 patch, resin, 장갑, 마스크, 소변에서 Mancozeb의 회수율 및 포장회수율 모두 90%이상이었다. 감귤 재배시 Mancozeb 사용에 따른 피부노출량은 여자가 약 1800mg/hr, 남자는 약 1300mg/hr 이었고 주로 배, 등, 상박 그리고 허벅지에 노출량이 많았다. 호흡노출은 관찰되지 않았고 소변에서도 Mancozeb는 관찰되지 않았다. 위해성 평가를 위해 PDE, AQE 및 MOS를 구하였으며 MOS는 Severn의 공식을 이용하였다. MOS는 여자가 0.37, 남자가 0.58이었다.

카바메이트계 농약인 카보푸란은 어류에 대한 독성이 매우 높으며, 낮은 농도에서 어류의 척추기형이나 행동이상을 유발한다. 이러한 카보푸란의 독성기전을 밝히기 위한 일환으로 신경물질대사와 관련이 깊은 acetylcholine esterase(AChE)와 monoamine oxidase(MAO)에 미치는 농약의 효과를 송사리(Oryzias latipes; Medaka fish)를 이용하여 평가하였다. Medaka fish에 대한 카보푸란의 반수치사농도(LC$_{50}$)는 2.5 ppm이었으며, 1 ppb 카보푸란에 24시간 노출된 경우, AChE 효소활성이 머리와 몸통부위에서 각각 30, 20%씩 감소되었다. 한편, MAO 효소활성은 카보푸란의 농도가 증가함에 따라 머리부위에서는 감소한 반면, 몸통부위에서는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 특히 카보푸란의 농도가 1 ppb에서도 송사리의 MAO 효소활성이 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나, 카보푸란에 의한 송사리의 행동이상은 AChE 활성 뿐 아니라 MAO활성의 변화에 의한 복합적인 효과일 가능성이 높다.

I. 서론 : 인류가 생존하기 위하여 필요한 식품의 근원은 농산물이며 이의 안정적인 생산 공급은 각국 정부의 중요한 정책중의 하나로 정부뿐만 아니라 민간 차원에서도 품종, 재배환경, 농자재를 포함한 재배기술 등을 개선.발전시키려는 각종 노력이 진행되고 있다. (생략)

This study investigated pesticide residues in 367 agricultural products from local food markets in Ulsan. Pesticide residues in these samples were analyzed using multi class pesticide multi-residue methods on the Korean Food Code for 350 pesticides using GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS. Residual pesticides were detected in 79 (21.5%) samples and exceeded maximum residual limits (MRLs) in 4 (1.1%) samples (chwinamul, narrow-head ragwort, green onion, apricot). The range of the hazard index (%) was 0.0000-63.1043%, and values for the pesticides that violated the MRLs were 63.1043 (green onion), 0.5417 (chwinamul), 0.0684 (apricot), and 0.0100 (narrow-head ragwort). This risk assessment study showed that the values of hazard index (%) were less than 100%, indicating that the consumption of these local agricultural food products was not harmful for human health.

Characteristics of organophoshhorus pesticides (OPs) distribution were investigated in Shingu Reservoir, as a shallow eutrophic agriculture reservoir in Korea. In August 2006, IBP, DDVP and dyfonate were detected in the water column of Singu Reservoir, ranging from 1340.7 to 16030.1 ng $L^{-1}$, 58.7 to 127.6 ng $L^{-1}$ and N.D. to 20.3 ng $L^{-1}$, respectively, However, in September 2006, mevinfos, ethoprofos, phorate, chlorfenvinfos, and methidathion were also found in addition to IBP (202.5${\sim}$213.2 ng $L^{-1}$), DDVP (100.7${\sim}$340.6 ng $L^{-1}$) and dyfonate (N.D.${\sim}$25.0 ng $L^{-1})$. Maximum concentrations of OPs were observed at the middle depth in August, which might be related with photo-oxidation. On the other hand, IBP and DDVP among the OPs were detected in suspended particles, suggesting the relatively active adsorption reactivity. The composition of OPs varied temporally on account of the influence of inflow water from its surrounding areas. In the present study, the observed OPs concentrations seem to be not acute toBic levels to aquatic organisms in Shingu Reservoir, considering the standard monitoring levels of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Japan Ministry of Environment.

"안전한 작물보호제"라는 말이 있다. 그렇다면 "안전"이란 어떠한 성질을 말하는 것일까. 신문 등에 과거 DDT의 이야기가 실릴 때에는 "독성이 강한 농약 DDT${\cdots}$"등과 같이 "독성이 강한"이라는 표현을 붙이는 경우가 많다. "독성이 강하다"라는 것은 어떠한 성질을 말하는 것일까. 올해 전, 모 신문은 '식염수를 마시고 사망한 소녀의 이야기"를 전했다. 구내염(口內炎)으로 아파하는 소녀에게 부모가 식염수로 양치를 시키자 더욱 괴로워했다. 그래서 엄하게 꾸짖으며 억지로 마시게 했더니, 염분의 농도가 짙어서 사망했다고 한다. 식염은 과연 "독성이 강한"것일까. 쉽게 사용해서는 안 되는 "안전"이나 "독성"이란 말은 어떤 의미를 갖는 것일까. 먼저 작보제에 대해서 약간의 문제점을 정리해보기로 하겠다. 그리고 작보제 안전성에 대해서 구체적이고 정석적인 이야기보다는 기본적인 개념을 주로 다루어 보고자 한다.

Susceptibility and persistence of Japanese pine sawyer, Monochamus alternatus adults, and acute contact toxicity, foliage contact toxicity, and residual toxicity to honeybee, Apis mellifera were evaluated by using 5 kinds of neonicotinoid pesticides. All neonicotinoids pesticides showed over 80% mortality 48 hour after body spray treatment. However, only 2 kinds of acetamiprid ME and acetamiprid+buprofezin showed over 80% mortality in the twig dipping treatment. All of the five neonicotinoides pesticides used in M. alternatus adults showed residual effect of 60-80% mortality, but the efficacy decreased rapidly after 1 day of treatment. Acetamiprid ME showed the lowest toxicity in the acute and foliage contact toxicity test of A. mellifera. The residual toxicity of leaves on A. mellifera was very low in acetamiprid ME and acetamiprid+buprofezin. However, the residual toxicity of all pesticides treatments decreased to 10-30% after 1 day of treatment and further decreased with time. These results indicate that acetamiprid ME among five neonicotinoid agents showed a high insecticidal activity in the M. alternatus adults, while it exhibited relatively low contact and residual toxicity in the A. mellifera. It is thought that acetamiprid ME can be effectively used for the control of the M. alternatus adults as vector of pine wilt disease.

To establish an evaluation system of aquatic toxicity of chemicals at no-effect level, flow through and early life stage toxicity test were performed on a freshwater fish, the medaka (Oryzias latipes). The characteristics of medaka as a bioassay organism for the chronic toxicity test were discussed. Maximum acceptable toxicant concentration(MATC) of butachlor for the madaka in soft water was estimated using survival, growth, and reproduction as indicators of toxic effects. During a 3-month period, the fry of medaka were exposed to butachor concentrations ranging from 0.16 to 0.0l mg/liter and the DO concentration, temperature, and pH in the exposure chamber were measured to check the test condition. The highest concentration showed slight decrease of growth rate in medaka and reduced hatchability of spawning egg. Survival, growth, and reproductive success of adults in butachlor concentration of 0.04 and 0.01 mg/liter were not different from those of the control. The MATC was estimated to be between 0.04 and 0.16 mg/liter for medaka.

We investigated the systemic effects of leaf folder (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis) resistant rice (transgenic rice, Nakdongbyeb) in Sprague-Dawley rats for 13 weeks. Leaf folder resistant rice was added to the diet at percentage levels of 0, 5 and 20 percentage/feeder and was administered for 13 weeks. The results did not show any changes in food and water intake. There were also no biologically significant changes in both body and organ weights, hematological and blood biochemical parameters, autopsy and histopathology between the treatment and control groups. Based on these results, no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) of transgenic rice was considered to be more than 10,000 mg/kg b.w. under the conditions of the present study.
