Abstract

The characteristics of pesticide residues were examined in 18,069 samples from 91 vegetable commodities collected in Seoul from 2007 to 2009, and the vegetable dietary intakes of Seoulites were estimated using the Korea National Health and Nutrition examination survey data from 2008. The hazard index was calculated using vegetable pesticide residues and dietary vegetable intake by Seoulites. Detection rates for pesticide residues in vegetables were 11.2 % in 2007, 8.6 % in 2008, and 12.0 % in 2009. Excess rate of Maximum Residue Limits tended to decline from 4.6 % in 2007, to 2.8 % in 2008, and 2.1 % in 2009.Daily vegetable intake for Seoulites was 288.12 ${\pm}$ 214.8 g, and vegetable intake by males was more than that of females (p < 0.001). The hazard index was the highest at $2.76{\times}10^{-2}$ in 2007, and the lowest at $1.69{\times}10^{-2}$ in 2009. The risks caused by multiple pesticides in vegetables were very low and vegetable intake was safe considering the hazard index values.

서울 지역에서 2007년부터 2009년까지 유통 중인 채소류에 대해 농약 잔류수준을 분석하여 검출빈도가 높은 농약을 대상으로 2008년도 국민건강영양조사 자료에서 서울시민의 채소섭취량을 산출하여 채소류 섭취에 따른 농약성분의 노출수준을 평가하였다. 1) 채소류 중 잔류농약 검출비율은 2007년 11.2%, 2008년 8.6%, 2009년 12.0%로 나타났으며, 잔류허용기준초과비율은 2007년 4.6%, 2008년 2.8%, 2009년 2.1%로 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 2) 서울시민과 서울시민을 제외한 한국인의 채소류 섭취량은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았으며, 일일 평균 섭취량이 각각 288.12 ${\pm}$ 214.8 g, 287.28 ${\pm}$ 231.6 g으로 비슷한 것으로 나타났다. 3) 농약이 검출된 37종의 채소류에 대해 서울시민의 채소류 섭취량을 산정한 결과, 일일 총 채소섭취량은 182.81 g이었고, 남자 191.84 g, 여자 175.99 g으로 남자의 섭취량이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 성인의 경우 일일 총 채소류 섭취량은 252.36 g이었으며 성인남자는 306.43 g, 성인여자는 219.78 g으로 성인남자가 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 4) 농약이 검출된 채소류 섭취에 따른 다종농약 성분에 대한 성인의 위해지수는 모두 1보다 작아 채소류 섭취에 기인한 다종 농약노출의 위해는 매우 낮은 수준이며, 위해지수는 2007년에 2.76E-02로 가장 높게 나타났고 2009년에는 1.69E-02로 감소하였다. 이는 채소류 중 잔류농약 허용기준초과율의 감소추세와 일치하였다. 본 연구는 채소류에만 국한된 연구이지만 잔류농약으로 인한 안전성을 확보하기 위해서는 지속적인 모니터링과 함께 신뢰성 있는 식이 섭취량 조사와 이에 따른 위해성 평가를 효과적으로 실시하여 과학적 근거를 축적하는 것이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
