BACKGROUND: The analytical method was established for determination of fungicide chinomethionat in several animal commodities using gas chromatography (GC) coupled with electron capture detector (ECD). METHODS AND RESULTS: In order to verify the applicability, the method was optimized for determining chinomethonat in various livestock products including beef, pork, chicken, milk and egg. Chinomethionat residual was extracted using acetone/dichloromethane(9/1, v/v) with magnesium sulfate and sodium chloride (salting outassociated liquid-liquid extraction). The extract was diluted by direct partitioning into dichloromethane to remove polar co-extractives in the aqueous phase. The extract was finally purified with optimized silica gel 10 g. CONCLUSION: The method limit of quantitation (MLOQ) was 0.02 mg/kg, which was in accordance with the maximum residue level (MRL) of chinomathionate as 0.05 mg/kg in livestock product. Recovery tests were carried out at two levels of concentration (MLOQ, 10 MLOQ) and resulted in good recoveries (84.8~103.0%). Reproducibilities were obtained (Coefficient of variation <5.2%), and the linearity of calibration curves were reasonable (r²>0.995) in the range of 0.01-0.2 ㎍/mL. This established analytical method was fully validated and could be useful for quantification of chinomathionat in animal commodities as official analytical method.

BACKGROUND: Oxycarboxin(5,6-dihydro-2-methyl-N-phenyl-1,4-oxathiin-3-carboxamide-4,4-dioxide) as oxanthiin is a systemic fungicide commonly used for control of various pathogens in agronomic and horticultural crops. In an effort to develop an analytical method to trace the fungicide, a method using HPLC equipped with UVD/MS was studied. METHODS AND RESULTS: Oxycarboxin was extracted with acetone from hulled rice, soybean, Kimchi cabbage, green pepper, and apple samples. The extract was diluted with saline water, followed by liquid-liquid extraction with methylene chloride. Florisil column chromatography was employed for the purification of the extracts. Oxycarboxin was determined on a Zorbax SB-AQ $C_{18}$ column by HPLC with UVD. Accuracy of the proposed method was validated by the recovery tests from crop samples fortified with oxycarboxin at 3 levels per crop. CONCLUSION: Mean recoveries ranged from 78.3% to 96.1% in five representative agricultural commodities. The coefficients of variation were less than 10%, and limit of quantitation of oxycarboxin was 0.04 mg/kg. A confirmatory technique using LC/MS with selected-ion monitoring was also provided to clearly identify the suspected residue. The method was reproducible and sensitive to determine the residue of oxycarboxin in agricultural commodities.

Soybean sprouts(Paektae chunjari variety) cultivated for 5 days at a high temperature and humidity condition placed in the position of either upside down (method 1) or up right (method 2) were compared with the sprouts grown for 9 days with the conventional method (method 3) with respect to appearance, yield, rotten rate and organoleptic quality. The method 1 sprouts cultivated at a high temperature and humidity by sprinkling underground water (controlled temperature $17^{\circ}C$) 8 times a day were not significantly different in yield, rotten rate and moisture content from the method 2 sprouts except the lighter individual weights. The total weight yield of method 1 sprouts ($699{\pm}8.14%$699±8.14%) was lower than that of the method 3 sprouts ($771{\pm}11.8%$) but there was no significant difference in rotten rate ($0.83{\pm}0.07$). The organoleptic quality of the method 1 sprouts were superior in colour, flavor and overall taste than the method 3 sprouts.

The embryonic development and hatchability of the artificially fertilized eggs of convict grouper (Hyporthodus septemfasciatus) ♀${\times}$giant grouper (Epinephelus lanceolatus) ♂ (CGGG) were compared to those of the maternal pure species (convict grouper ♀${\times}$♂, CG) to establish a novel grouper hybrid for aquaculture industry. The fertilized eggs were divided into nine 5-L beakers (3,000~5,000 eggs/beaker) filled with UV sterilized seawater and incubated at a temperature range of $23.5{\sim}24.8^{\circ}C$ (32.1~32.8 psu). The percentages of fertilization and hatching of CGGG were $69.4{\pm}1.5%$ and $59.0{\pm}5.1%$, respectively and were significantly lower than those of CG (p<0.05). The CGGG proceeded normal embryonic development similar to that of CG, but showed an irregular cleavage, immature embryonic body and spinal deformity in hatched larvae. The incubation time from fertilization to hatching of CGGG was 31 hrs, which was approximately 2 hrs slower than that of CG. Our study provided the possibility of mass production of grouper hybrid CGGG larvae.

The market for lactose-hydrolyzed milk is growing due to an increased awareness of lactose intolerance, and increased market interest for modified milk with health claims. The aim of this study was to compare the quality characteristics of 2% lactose-hydrolyzed milk with its lactose hydrolysis rate, with the goal of applying the method to dairy product monitoring in the future. We observed that the freezing point of milk significantly decreased with increasing lactose hydrolysis rate. A linear relationship was found between lactose concentration and freezing point, following the equation (y=-50.416x + 767.91). However, no significant changes were observed in other physicochemical properties of the milk (pH, titratable acidity, total solids and color) (p<0.05). In conclusion, we could predict the residual lactose content quickly and easily in 2% low fat milk by measuring its freezing point. This could represent an easy means for assessing the lactose hydrolysis rate of dairy products.

This study was conducted to evaluate the control efficacy of dollar spot on creeping bentgrass after applying various amounts of tebuconazole, chlorothalonil and mixture of tebuconazole and chlorothalonil (tebuconazole+chlorothalonil). In effect of three fungicides on suppression against Sclerotinia homoeocarpa, tebuconazole and tebuconazole+chlorothalonil were found to inhibit more than 98% fungus growth on medium and 70% in chlorothalonil treatment. The control efficacy of tebuconazole at different rates of 31.25, 62.5, and $125a.i.\;mg\;m^{-2}$ on creeping bentgrass showed more than 80%. Application of tebuconazole ($125.0a.i.\;mg\;m^{-2}$), tebuconazole+chlorothalonil ($125.0a.i.\;mg\;m^{-2}+135.9a.i.\;mg\;m^{-2}$) and chlorothalonil ($135.9a.i.\;mg\;m^{-2}$) were suppressed 96%, 80%, 70% for the dollar spot severity, respectively. Correlation between application amount of fungicides and control efficacy of dollar spot was significantly positive, and suggested amount of tebuconazole, tebuconazole+chlorothalonil and chlorothalonil that might suppress more than 80% of dollar spot were calculated to 29.6, 132.2+142.8, and $157.0a.i.\;mg\;m^{-2}$, respectively.

This research has been carried out to find out the highest effect on insecticidal, fungicidal and herbicidal activities in leaves, stem and tuber extracts of yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) and extraction methods such as water, boiling water and methanol. Characteristics of potential herbicidal components among extraction methods were investigated by solvent fractions such as hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water. Generally, methanol extract was the best on inhibition of germination rate, plant height, and root length in cucumber and barley. On the other hand, the inhibition effect on growth in cucumber and barley was the best in tuber among plant parts of yacon. Inhibition of germination rate, plant height, and root length in cucumber and barley in solvent fractions was the best in water fraction, but there were no differences in other fractions. Digitaria sanguinalis L. and Solanum nigrum L. by 5 and 10% extractions of yacon tuber were controlled by more than 70~80% and 95~100%, respectively. However, there was no inhibition effect on foliar treatment in cucumber and barley as affected by 5 and 10% extractions of yacon tuber. Mortality of green peach aphid (Myzus persicae Sulzer) was 50% at 3 days after treatment of 5% extracts of yacon leaves. Mortality of brown plant hopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stal) was only 24% in 5% extracts of stems and leaves with midrib, but was 57% in 5% extracts of leaves without midrib. There was no fungicidal effect on anthracnose (Colletotrichum truncatum), wilt disease (Fusarium oxysporum), verticillium wilt (Verticillium dahliae), bacterial blight (Xanthomonus oryzae) in 5% extracts of yacon leaves.
