This study was conducted to identify the residue patterns of fungicide boscalid in ginseng cultivated for 4 or 6 years treated by various spraying methods. The pesticide was sprayed separately on ginseng according to safe use guideline, and the field was divided into three groups and they were traditional, soil and vinyl mulching applications. The maximum residue amounts of boscalid were 0.76 mg/kg in traditional application group, 0.69 mg/kg in soil application group, 0.62 mg/kg in vinyl mulching application group in the whole part of 4 years old ginseng, respectively. These residue levels in ginseng exceeded the maximum residue limit established by Korea Food & Drug Administration, which is 0.3 mg/kg.

The dissipation patters of the triazole fungicides flusilazole and myclobutanil in apples were investigated to establish the biological half-lives and pre-harvest residue limits (PHRLs). The residual amounts of the fungicides sprayed with single or triple doses were below the maximum residue limits (MRL) for apples established by Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. The dissipation constants of the fungicides in the apples were 0.0513 for flusilazole and 0.0244 for myclobutanil meaning their biological half-lives were calculated as 6.2-6.7 days for flusilazole and 13.3-24.8 days for myclobutanil. The PHRLs calculated using the dissipation constants indicated that the residual amounts of flusilazole and myclobutanil in the apples at the harvesting date would be below the MRLs if their residual amounts were 0.43 and 0.59 mg/kg, respectively, at 7 days prior to harvesting the apples.

Carbofuran was incubated for four weeks in five types of paddy soil samples at $25^{\circ}C$. The soil samples prepared in the study were as follows : control soil, sterilized soil, 10% cellulose added soil, 10% cellulose and 1% ferrous sulfate added soil, and 10% cellulose and 1% magnesium sulfate added soil. The degradation rate of carbofuran was significantly decreased(p<0.05) in sterilized soil.The degradation rate of carbofuran was significantly decreased by addition of cellulose(p<0.05) in femous sulfate added soil and magnesium sulfate added soil(p<0.01).

A comparative experiment was conducted to investigate the persistence of chlorfenapyr residue and its biological activity to two spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, after treatment of chlorfenapyr suspension concentrate (10% SC) on paprika plants at recommended (2000 times dilution) and double dosage. Biological half-lives of chlorpfenapyr were estimated as 8 and 5 days in leaves and fruits of paprika plants, respectively. While initial deposits of chlorfenapyr residues in leaves at recommended and double dosages were 22.22 and 37.75 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ at the time of application, its residue decreased to 1.56 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ and 3.62 ${\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ at 29 days after treatment, respectively. Residual biological activity of chlorfenapyr SC to T. urticae at recommended dosage lasted for 7 or 15 days on the basis of 24 or 48-hrs mortality test assayed with feeding on excised leaf chlorfenapyr-treated. The control efficacy to the mite showed a good agreement with the persistence of chlorfenapyr residues in leaves.

Water budget analysis in the groundwater system was conducted in order to understand water budget distributions in the ground water system in Geum-gang watershed. The annual amounts of precipitation, runoff, evapotranspiration, dam storage change and water supply over the sub-watershed in Geum-gang watershed were evaluated the residual groundwater from 2002 to 2006, based on the water budget considering inflow and outflow. Then we are able to expect residual groundwater of each sub-basin. According to the result of study, the year 2003 and 2006 were recorded the highest and the lowest precipitation value, respectively. Average run-off percentage against precipitation was 60.44%. Annual evapotranspiration in each of years didn't show the remarkable variations but the values were high in the lower reaches of the basin. The residual waters in Geum-gang basin were determined to be 133.36 in 2002, 77.64 in 2003, -19.40 in 2004, -82.25 in 2005 and -128.07 mm in 2006. The residual water in Geum-gang basin was high in the main and up stream such as Maepo. Also the residual water showed low distributions in Nonsan and Seokhwa.

This study was conducted to investigate changes in pesticide residues in eggplant and lettuce during washing and cooking processes after application with azoxystrobin. Eggplant was processed with running washing, steaming, and stir-frying, and lettuce was processed with soaking washing, running washing, soaking and running washing, ultrasonic cleaning, and blanching. The limit of quantitation of GC analysis of azoxystrobin was 0.01 mg/kg and the recovery rate was 84.7-109.5%. The azoxystrobin processing factors (PFs) and reduction rates in eggplant and lettuce were calculated and the results were as follows. In the case of eggplant, the azoxystrobin PF and reduction rate of running washing were 0.29 and 71.1%, respectively, those of steaming were 0.32 and 68.0%, respectively, and those of stir-frying were 0.24 and 75.7%, respectively. In the case of lettuce, the azoxystrobin PF and reduction rate of soaking washing were 0.25, 75.3%, those of running washing were 0.61 and 38.9%, respectively, those of soaking and running washing were 0.32, 68.0%, those of ultrasonic cleaning were 0.47 and 53.1%, respectively, and those of blanching were 0.26 and 73.6%, respectively. It could be identified that pesticide residues in eggplant and lettuce can be effectively reduced through washing and cooking processes and that most of pesticide residues were removed when cooking processes were undergone after washing. Therefore, azoxystrobin PFs after washing and processing can be provided as basic data for risk assessment.

An organophosphorus insecticide, chlorpyrifos and an arylnitrile fungicide, chlorothalonil commonly used far apple were subjected to a residual investigation under field conditions to ensure safety of terminal residues at harvest. After pesticides were applied at standard rate in apple tree fer 15 days for chlorpyrifos and 30 days far chlorothalonil, persistence of their residues in apple was investigated by several interval. At harvest, residual concentrations of chlorpyrifos and chlorothalonil in apple were 1.3 and 2.4mg/kg, respectively, and the residue levels were higher than MRL 1.0 mg/kg in Korea. As well fitted by the first-oder kinetics, biological half-lives of the pesticide residues in apple were 9.3 days for chlorpyrifos and 32.2 days for chlorothalonil. During the storage, half-lives of chlorpyrifos and chlorothalonil were 35.0 and 56.3days at room temperature, and 120.7 and 182.8 days at 412, respectively. Distribution of chlorpyrifos residue in flesh, fruit skin and stalk cavity of each apple corresponded to 0.1% 22.8% and 77.1%, respectively. In case of chlorothalonil, residue in flesh, fruit skin and stalk cavity was 4.4%, 10.4% and 85.2%, respectively.

Dissipation constants and half-lives of acaricides etoxazole and flufenoxuron in apples were calculated to establish their pre-harvest residue limits (PHRLs). The acaricides were sprayed on apples with single and triple doses based on safe use guidelines, and their residual patterns in the apple were interpreted using first order kinetics equation. The residual amounts of acaricides during the experimental period were below their maximum residue limits (MRL) for apple. The dissipation constants of acaricides in the apples were calculated at 0.0788 for etoxazole and 0.0319 for flufenoxuron corresponding to their biological half-lives; 8.8~21.7 days for etoxazole and 21.7~23.1 days for flufenoxuron. The PHRLs of acaricides in the apple showed the residual amounts of etoxazole and flufenoxuron at the harvesting date would be below their MRLs if their residual amounts were less than 0.87 and 0.88 mg/kg, respectively, at 7 days prior to harvesting the apples.

To determine the change of residual chlorpyrifos during Kimchi fermentation, the Kimchi was prepared and fermented at $4^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks according to the conventional method. As a model experiment, chinese cabbages which were soaked in the chlorpyrifos solution were used for Kimchi preparation. It was found that the concentration of residual chlorpyrifos which was 0.161 ppm in raw cabbages decreased to 0.0938 ppm by 4 times of washing and further decreased to 0.0099ppm during fermentation of Kimchi for 4 weeks. In the model system, the residual chlorpyrifos decreased by the first order reaction as the fermentation of Kimchi proceeded . It's half life is approximately 1.8 weeks.
