Azoxystrobin과 difenoconazole의 인삼 중 잔류 특성

Abstract

This study was carried out to elucidate residual characteristics of azoxystrobin and difenoconazole in fresh ginseng. Test pesticides were sprayed onto ginseng both in 2009 for 3-year-old ginseng and in 2010 for 4-year-old ginseng according to their pre-harvest intervals (PHIs). Limit of quantitation (LOQ) of both azoxystrobin and difenoconazole was 0.003 mg/kg. Analytical methods set up for the test pesticides were considered to be suitable for the analysis of their residues in fresh ginseng, considering that their recoveries ranged from 87.58 to 112.79%. Concentration of azoxystrobin in 3-year-old ginseng ranged from 0.004 to 0.011 mg/kg and that in 4-year-old ginseng ranged from 0.007 to 0.016 mg/kg. Amounts of difenoconazole in 3- and 4-year-old ginsengs were from 0.003 to 0.007 and from 0.007 to 0.01 mg/kg, respectively, representing no accumulation effect observed in residue amount between them.
