이 실험은 참깨에 대한 Propineb의 안전(安全) 사용기준(使用基準)을 설정하기 위하여 보호(保護) 살균제(殺菌劑)인 Propineb(56%)와 직접(直接) 살균제(殺菌劑)인 Oxadixyl(8%)의 혼합제(混合劑)를 경엽 살포하였을때, 그 시용량(施用量)과 시용시간(施用時間)에 따라 참깨시료중에 잔류(殘留)하는 Propineb의 잔류량(殘留量)을 측정하였다. 공시농약의 처리는 수확전 3, 7, 15, 30, 45, 60일에 하였으며 Propineb는 각 처리구당 $0.028g/m^2$의 수준으로 시용(施用)하였다. 본 실험에서 얻은 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 참깨 중 Propineb의 회수율(回收率)은 84-96%이었으며, 최소(最少) 검출(檢出) 한계(限界)는 0.03mg/kg이었다. 2. 처리횟수 및 처리기간에 따른 참깨 시료중의 Propineb의 잔류량(殘留量)은 $0.14{sim}1.38mg/kg$ 범위였다. 3. Propineb의 잔류량(殘留量)은 처리 횟수가 많을수록, 또 처리 일수가 수확일에 가까울수록 많은 경향을 보여주었다. 4. 참깨시료중에 Propineb의 잔류량은 시간이 경과함에 따라 감소했으며 이는 First-Order Kinetics에 따랐다. 5. 참깨시료중 Propineb의 잔류량은 6회 사용, 수확 3일전에 처리하였을 경우에 1.38mg/kg이었으며, 이는 FAO/WHO에서 설정한 최대(最大) 잔류허용량(殘留許容量)인 2mg/kg보다 낮았다. 6. 본 실험에서 측정한 Propineb의 반감기(半減期)는 $12{sim}16$일이었다.
Residue of Propineb in Sesame(Sesamum indicum L.) seed was determined to establish an index for the safety use of Propineb to Sesame. Evaluation was made on residual concentration of Propineb in Sesame seed as a function of application frequency and date when the mixed formulations of Propineb(56%), protectant fungicide, and Oxadixyl(8%), contact fungicide, were sprayed into Sesame leaves. Level of Propineb treatment was $0.028g/m^2$ with various combinations of application time from three to sixty days before harvest. Results are summarized as followings. 1. Recovery percentages of Propineb from Sesame seed were ranged from 84 to 96, and the minimum detectable limit of Propineb with the method employed in this experiment was 0.03mg/kg. 2. Residues of Propineb in Sesame seed were in the ranges of 0.14 to 1.38mg/kg, varying with frequency and date of Propineb application. 3. Residues of Propineb increased as increasing application frequency of Propineb or as being application date closer to harvest time. 4. Residue of Propineb in Sesame seed was decreased with time, showing to be fitted to the first-order kinetics. 5. Residues of Propineb in Sesame seen were, irresepective of treatments, lower than 2mg/kg, the Maximum Residue Limit(MRL) established by FAO/WHO. 6. Half-life of Propineb determined in this experiment was ranged from 12 to 16 days.
