본 연구는 생산단계 참외에 대하여 buprofezin 및 penthiopyrad의 일자별 농약 잔류량 감소추이를 파악하여, 생산단계 농산물의 안전관리에 활용하고자 수행하였다. Buprofezin 및 penthiopyrad 시험농약을 안전사용기준에 준하여 각각 2,000, 4,000배 희석한 후 시험포장 1, 2 지역으로 나누어 처리한 후, 살포 2시간 후를 0일차로 하여 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10일차에 시료를 채취하였다. 채취한 시료는 두 시험약제 모두 dichloromethane 80, 70 mL로 2회 분배 하였으며, florisil SPE cartridge를 사용하여 정제하였고, GC/NPD를 이용하여 최종 분석하였다. Buprofezin 및 penthiopyrad의 분석정량한계(Method limit of quantification, MLOQ)는 $0.01mg;kg^{-1}$이었으며, buprofezin의 회수율은 91.1~98.6%이었고, penthiopyrad의 회수율은 90.0~104.6%이었다. 잔류량 감소추이를 통하여 산출한 buprofezin의 시험포장 1, 2에 대한 생물학적 반감기는 각각 3.9, 3.5일이었으며, penthiopyrad의 경우 3.0, 2.7일로 나타났다. 잔류감소 회귀식을 이용하여 생산단계 잔류허용기준을 설정을 제안한 결과, 수확 10일 전 buprofezin은 $4.24mg;kg^{-1}$, penthiopyrad는 $2.31mg;kg^{-1}$으로 나타났다. 이는 수확 시 잔류량이 각각 4.24, $2.31mg;kg^{-1}$ 이하로 잔류할 경우, 잔류허용기준(Maximum Residue Limit, MRL) 수준 이하로 잔류할 것으로 예측된다.
The present work was aimed to determine the pre-harvest residue limits (PHRLs) and the safety management of commonly used pesticides namely buprofezin and penthiopyrad on oriental melon (Cucumis melon var. makuwa). In this study, the buprofezin (diluted two thousand fold) and penthiopyrad (diluted four thousand fold) were sprayed single time on oriental melon in the cultivation areas Sangju (site 1) and Sungju (site 2). Oriental melon were randomly collected from the both areas at the end of 0 (2 hours after pesticides spaying), 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 10 days. For analysis, each samples were partitioned twice (80 and 70 mL) with dichloromethane and purified by florisil SPE cartridge. Finally, the residual amounts of both pesticides in all samples were analyzed using gas chromatography/nitrogen phosphorus detector (GC/NPD). In this study, the method limit of quantification (MLOQ) for both buprofezin and penthiopyrad in oriental melon was found to be $0.01mg;kg^{-1}$ and their recovery levels were 91.1~98.6% and 90.0~104.6%, respectively. Further, the calculated biological half-life for buprofezin and penthiopyrad in oriental melon were 3.9 and 3.5, and 3.0 and 2.7 days in site 1 and 2, respectively. The results of this study found that the PHRLs for buprofezin and penthiopyrad were 4.24 and $2.31mg;kg^{-1}$, respectively at 10 days before harvest. Consequently, the present study suggest that the residual amounts of both pesticides will be lower than the maximum residue limits (MRLs) when oriental melon is harvested.
