The effects of mutagens, MMS and captan, on the patterns of proteins synthesized during the early developmental stages in mice were analyzed using two-dimensional electrophoresis. Three classes of proteins were observed in terms of synthetic pattern during the preimplantation stages. The first class is synthesized from the m-RNA, which was made and preserved throughout oogenesis and activated at the fertilization. The synthesis of these proteins did not seem to be influenced by MMS. The second class, which may be stagespecific proteins synthesized by newly transcribed m-RNA, was selectively inhibited by MMS. The third class, the synthesis of which is also suppressed by MMS, is the proteins synthesized by the m-RNA transcribed in augmented fashion. While MMS inhibits protein synthesis dependent on thenew transcription, this mutagen enhances a synthesis of a few proteins which were not observed in the untreated embryos. Captan did not affect protein synthesis at morula stage.

This study was carried out to determine residues of 17 pesticides and provide basic information on dietary safety of 35 kinds of Kangweon-do agricultural products. Residual leyels of organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides were analyzed by using GLC-ECO and GLC-NPD, respectively. A total of 157 agricultural products of Kangweon-do were analyzed. At least one kind of pesticide residues were detected in 48.4% of the analyzed samples and two or more kinds were found in 15.3%. Residue of Captan was detected in 43 samples of 81 agricultural products which was 53.1%. But residues of Endrin, Captafol, Parathion, Fenitrothion, Fenthion and EPN were not found in the all samples tested. Ranges of the pesticide residue leyels detected were ND-0.142 ppm for organochlorine pesticides, ND-0.075 ppm for organophosphorus pesticides and ND-1.067 ppm for Captan. Results of this monitoring study demonstrated that pesticide residue leyels in Kangweon-do agricultural supply were generally well below regulatory limits.

1. In the vegetable crops, only MEP and Malathion showed a litte higher positive rate than other pesticides in general. On the other hand, parathion and captan were not detectable at all. 2. In the fruits, pesticides, MEP, PAP and Parathion had a little high positive rate, and Diazinon, and captan were not detectable at all. 3. However, the detected values of the pesticides in the vegetables and fruits were far below from korean tolerances and internationally recommended limits and tolerances, showing only $\frac{1}{3}{\sim}\frac{1}{66}$ and $\frac{1}{8}{\sim}\frac{1}{500}$ of Korean tolerance in vegetables and fruits, respectively.

20 pesticides induding 11 insecticides, 5 herbicides and 4 fungicides have been tested for mutagenic activity in the Salmonella microsome system. It was found that Captan showed strong mutagenic activity directly in TA 1535, TA 100 and TA 98 strains, indicating that it induces both base substitution and frame shift mutation. With microsomal activation system, mutagenicity of Captan was slightly decreased. Micut, Dimethoate and Triforine revealed slight mutagenicity in TA100 without microsmal enzyme activtion.

Twenty-five species of fungi were deleted and identified from 27 kinds of the intercepted seeds from 5 countries. Eight species of fungi including Fusariun moniliforme were detected from the imported calabash seed (Lagenaria siceraria). These seeds were the most contaminated among the intercepted reeds tested. Six kinds of seeds including larch(Larix kaemferi) were disinfected with Vitathiram, Benlate-T and Captan. Rhynchosporium was detected from seeds treated with Vitathiram whereas Alternaria spp. were detected from seeds treated with Benlate T or Captan. Six genera of fungi were detected from the untreated seeds. In the case of germination, it seem that seed disinfectants do not have any damage on germination of seed.

The post-harvest concentration change of four kind of pesticides, captan, chlorpyrifos, methidathion and kresoxim-methyl was investigated with the storage period for the import fruit. Then the post-harvest concentration was set to 1000, 250, 400 and 157 $mgkg^{-1}$ for captan, chlorpyrifos, methidathion and kresoxim-methyl respectively. In case of captan, 0.9-12.5 $mgkg^{-1}$ in total fruit base and ND-0.23 $mgkg^{-1}$ in the sarcocarp were measured after atomization and 0.7-3.2 $mgkg^{-1}$ in total fruit base and ND-0.67 $mgkg^{-1}$ in the sarcocarp were measured after four week. For chlopyrifos, menthidathion, and kresoxim-methyl 0.4-2.2, 0.7-3.1 and 1.3-2.1 $mgkg^{-1}$ in total fruit base and ND-0.32, ND-0.05 and ND-0.16 $mgkg^{-1}$ in the sarcocarp were measured after atomization respectively. After four week 0.3-0.9, 0.4-2.0 and 1.3-1.8 $mgkg^{-1}$ in total fruit base and ND-0.02, ND-0.05 and ND-0.15 $mgkg^{-1}$ in the sarcocarp were investigated for other three pesticides. The concentration decreasing ratio of pesticides was largest for captan, 52% and other components were in order of chlopyrifos, menthidathion, and kresoxim-methy, 47, 41, 11% each other.

The application of fungicides is indispensable to global food security, and their use has increased in recent times. Fungicides, directly or indirectly, have impacted insects, leading to genetic and molecular-level changes. Various detoxification mechanisms allow insects to eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS) toxicity induced by agrochemicals including fungicides. In the present study, we analyzed the mRNA expression levels of detoxifying enzymes in Tenebrio molitor larvae following exposure to non-lethal doses (0.2, 2, and 20 ㎍/µL) of a fungicide captan. Transcripts of peroxidases (POXs), catalases (CATs), superoxide dismutases (SODs), and glutathione-s-transferases (GSTs) were screened from the T. molitor transcriptome database. RT-qPCR analysis showed that TmPOX5 mRNA increased significantly 24 h post-captan exposure. A similar increase was noticed for TmSOD4 mRNA 3 h post-captan exposure. Moreover, the expression of TmCAT2 mRNA increased significantly 24 h post-treatment with 2 ㎍/µL captan. TmGST1 and TmGST3 mRNA expression also increased noticeably after captan exposure. Taken together, these results suggest that TmPOX5 and TmSOD4 mRNA can be used as biomarkers or xenobiotics sensors for captan exposure in T. molitor, while other detoxifying enzymes showed differential expression.

Effect of storage temperature, washing, and cooking on postharvest-treated pesticide residues in polished rice was investigated. After being treated with each 500 mg/kg of captan, carbaryl, phenthoate, fenthion, fenitrothion, chlorpyriphos-methyl, pirimiphos-methyl, the polished rice was stored for 8 weeks at 4 and 3$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The penetation rate of carbaryl was the highest as 27.5% and the others, 13 to 18%. The half lives of pesticide residues were estimated as 30 to 230 weeks at 4$^{\circ}C$, but 1 to 12 weeks at 3$0^{\circ}C$. The residues were reduced faster at 3$0^{\circ}C$ than at 4$^{\circ}C$. The half lives of pesticide residues by water washing were estimated as 0.7 to 4.6 trials and the removed with the washing trials. The residues of captan and carbaryl in cooked rice were removed 100 and 98%, respectively, comparing to initial residues concentration in treated rice but those of other 5 pesticides were removed 80%.

The experiment was carried out in order to choose fungicides which are proper to be used in flowering time of fruit trees. The effect of fungicides on pollen germination and pollen tube growth was investigated in vitro. The results obtained are as follows : 1. Difolatan-Wp, Lime-sulfur, Captan-Wp and Bordeaux mixture greatly inhibited pollen germination and pollen tube growth. 2. The effect of Daconil-Wp and Zimaneb-Wp on pollen germination and pollen tube growth was not so great as that of Difolatan-Wp, Lime-sulfur, Captan-Wp or Bordeaux mixture. 3. Polyram-combi-Wp, Topsin-Wp and Benlate-Wp did not affect pollen germination but these fungicides slightly inhibited pollen tube growth. 4. Polyoxin-Wp significantly increased pollen tube growth but did not show promotive effect on pollen germinaiton.
