  • Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor has been used to detect many biochemical reactions, because this label-free sensor has high sensitivity and rapid response. The reactions are monitored by refractive index changes of the SPR biosensor. Iprovalicarb is protective, curative, and eradicative systemic fungicide introduced by Bayer AG in 1999. It has potential far control of downy mildew infesting onion, cucumber, grape and melon, late blight infesting tomato and potato, and anthracnose infesting watermelon and pepper. It is strictly limited to the maximum residue limit. In this study, the applicability of a portable SPR biosensor (Spreeta, Texas instrument, TX, USA) to detect the iprovalicarb residue was examined. The sensor chip was adopted to detect the reaction of iprovalicarb to immobilized iprovalicarb-antibody. The binding of the iprovalicarb onto the biosensor surface was measured by change of the refractive index (RI). Characteristics of the sensor chip including specificity, sensitivity, stability, and reusability were analyzed. In calibration test for seven levels of iprovalicarb concentration (0.32 to 5,000 mg/L) with three replications, a Sigmoidal model with Hill function was obtained between relative RI value and the iprovalicarb concentration with R-square of 0.998. It took 30 minutes to complete a set of detecting assay with the SPR biosensor.

  • For a biosensor development, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) of the fungicide iprovalicarb was developed by minimizing the processing time. The time for whole incubation process was reduced from 135 minutes to 15 minutes. The concentration of antibody was varied to improve sensitivity. The total processing time was reduced from 2.5 hours to 20 minutes, the final sensitivity ($IC_{50}$ value) of 7.93 ng/mL and the lowest detection limit of 0.045 ng/mL were obtained. This ELISA was applied to potatoes and onions, and the recoveries were in the range of 98.85 $\sim$ 101.20% and 87.97 $\sim$ 102.70%, respectively. Accordingly, this method can be used as basis for a biosensor for rapid monitoring of iprovalicarb residues in crops.

  • Baseline sensitivity to benthiavalicarb, iprovalicarb and dimethomorph included into carboxylic acid amide (CAA) group was evaluated in 180 isolates of Phytophthora capsici over 4 years from 2005 to 2008. $EC_{50}$ (effective concentration inhibiting mycelial growth by 50%) value of benthiavalicarb ranged from $0.015{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ to $0.049{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ with a mean of $0.033{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$. The mean values of $EC_{50}$ of iprovalicarb and dimethomorph were 0.411 (0.197 - 0.556) ${\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ and 0.271 (0.101 - 0.798) ${\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$, respectively. Although there was no increasing tendency in $EC_{50}$of benthiavalicarb and iprovalicarb during 4 years, $EC_{50}$ of dimethomorph was increased gradually by laps of time. There was no cross-resistance between each fungicide used in this study and metalaxyl. Among fungicides included into CAA group, there was a positive correlation between benthiavalicarb and iprovalicarb, and between dimethomorp and mandipropamid.

  • In this study, a biosensor was developed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to rapidly measure the fungicide iprovalicarb residues in agricultural products. The biosensor was designed to include micro-pumps and solenoid valves for fluid transport, a spectrophotometer cuvet as a reaction chamber, a photodiode with a light-emitting diode for optical density measurement, and a control microcomputer to implement assay. The rate of change in optical density of the cuvet was read as final signal output. Micro-pumps were evaluated to investigate their delivery capability, the highest values of the error and the coefficient of variation were 4.3% and 4.6% respectively. As the incubation period was reduced from 15 minutes to 11 minutes to shorten the total processing time, the sensor sensitivity was decreased as the antibody dilution ratio was reduced to a half. The maximum usable period of the coated cuvet was found to be two days with 1% error limit. To predict the concentration of the iprovalicarb residue in agricultural products, a linear calibration model was obtained with r-square values of 0.992 for potato and 0.985 for onion. In validation test for the samples of potatoes and onions against the high performance liquid chromatography, very high correlation values were obtained as 0.996 and 0.993 respectively. Using the cuvet immobilized with antigen, it took 21-minutes for the biosensor to complete the measuring process of the iprovalicarb residues.

  • It was conducted to investigate the control efficacy of carboxylic acid amide (CAA) fungicides, such as benthiavalicarb, iprovalicarb, dimethomorph and mandipropamid, against pepper Phytophthora blight caused by P. capsid in the laboratory and the field. The fungicides inhibited mycelial growth and direct sporangium germination of P. capsid strongly, while there was no activity of all fungicides against zoospore release from sporangium. In greenhouse test, they showed the good protective and curative effect against pepper Phytophthora blight. Benthiavalicarb applied at $100{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ 7 days before inoculation prevented pepper Phytophthora blight by 100%, even though the zoosporangiurn suspension of P. capsid adjusted to not only $5{\times}10^3$ zoosporangia $mL^{-1}$ but also $1{\times}10^5$ zoosporangia $mL^{-1}$ was inoculated by soil-drenching. Except for dimethomorph, the other fungicides showed an excellent control activity over 2 years from 2009 to 2010 in the field test. The control value of dimethomorph applied at $250{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ was low, 27.2% in 2009, but that of dimethomorph applied even at $125{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ was high, 89.5% in 2010. All the fungicides showed good inhibitory effect on the mycelial growth and the direct germination of zoosporangiurn, and controlled pepper Phytophthora blight preventively and curatively, can be used to establish the spray system for control1ing the pepper disease.

  • BACKGROUND: Food Sanitary Act establishes Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) of pesticides in food that are newly registered and used per each quarter, as stipulated by Agro-chemical Control Act. Current Food Code contains the MRLs for a total of 418 pesticides in 184 food types. METHODS AND RESULTS: National MRLs for pesticides have been established by based on scientific data of good agricultural practice, acceptable daily intake (ADI), food intake, average body weight and others. MRLs for pesticides are generally set under the principle that theoretical maximum daily intake (TMDI) are always below ADI. As results, 27 MRLs in agricultural products were newly proposed for 22 pesticides (fungicide: azoxystrobin, fludioxonil, fluquinconazole, flusilazole, iprovalicarb, kresoxim-methyl, mandipropamid, metconazole, pyraclostrobin, tebuconazole, triflumizole, etc., Insecticide: dinotefuran, flubendiamide, indoxacarb, cyhalothrin, spinetoram, thiacloprid, thiamethoxam, metaflumizone, etc., Acaricide(miticide): cyenopyrafen, lufenuron) in 2010. CONCLUSION(s): There is no intake concerns for establishment of pesticide MRLs on foods in this time. Because the ratio of theoretical maximum daily intake (TMDI) are set below that of ADI.
