우리나라 경기북부지역은 말라리아 위험지역으로 말라리아는 주로 이 지역의 우점종인 Anopheles sinensis에 의해 감염되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이들에 대한 방제는 주로 피레스로이드계 살충제가 사용되고 있고 지금까지의 살충제 저항성 조사에서 지속적으로 저항성이 나타나고 있다. 이에 우리나라 말라리아 주요 매개모기인 An. sinensis의 피레스로이드계 살충제 저항성을 조사하여 말라리아 위험지역에서의 매개모기 방제에 대한 실태를 조사하고자 한다. 본 연구를 위하여 파주, 김포, 강화 세 지역에서 채집된 An. sinensis를 DNA 염기서열 분석을 통하여 저항성 유전형질을 분석하였다. 파주는 동형 감수성 유전형질은 발견되지 않았고 모든 개체에서 저항성 유전형질을 가지는 것으로 조사되었다. 김포에서는 6.7%의 동형 감수성 유전형질과 93.3%의 이형 또는 동형 저항성 유전형질을 나타내었고 강화의 경우는 5.7%의 동형 감수성 유전형질과 94.3%의 이형 또는 동형 저항성 유전형질이 조사되었다. 본 연구 결과를 통해서 우리나라 말라리아 위험지역인 파주, 김포, 강화에서의 말라리아 주요매개 모기인 An. sinensis의 피레스로이드계 살충제 저항성은 이전 조사에서보다 매우 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 이 지역의 말라리아 매개모기 방제를 위해서는 피레스로이드계 살충제 저항성 관리가 시급한 것으로 사료된다.

토양 및 수용액조건에서와 자외선조사시의 bifenthrin의 주 분해대사산물을 확인하고 토양중 에서의 용탈을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 토양 및 수용액조건에서와 자외선조사시 bifenthrin의 일차분해산물은 2-methylbiphenyl-3-ylmethanol로 HPLC, UV, Mass 및 NMR로 확인되었으며 bifenthrin의 주 분해경로는 ester결합의 가수분해 작용으로 나타났다. 자외선 조사시 bifenthrin은 첨가농도 10,100ppm에서 24시간만에 거의 분해 소실되었으며 1,000ppm일 때는 약 80%정도 분해되었다. Soil TLC 및 column상에서 bifenthrin은 거의 용탈되지 않고 표토에 존재하였다.

It is well known that many pesticides possess hormonal activity, and thus have been classified as endocrine disruptors. Currently, pyrethroid insecticides are in worldwide use to control in door pests, providing potential for environmental exposure. A few studies of hormonal activities of these pyrethroid insecticides, however, have been reported, and are controversial between studies.(omitted)

Two-point mutations (V419L and L925I) on the voltage-sensitive sodium channel of bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are known to confer pyrethroid resistance. To determine the status of pyrethroid resistance in bed bugs in Korea, resistance allele frequencies of bed bug strains collected from several US military installations in Korea and Mokpo, Jeollanamdo, from 2009-2019 were monitored using a quantitative sequencing. Most bed bugs were determined to have both of the point mutations except a few specimens, collected in 2009, 2012 and 2014, having only a single point mutation (L925I). No susceptible allele was observed in any of the bed bugs examined, suggesting that pyrethroid resistance in bed bug populations in Korea has reached a serious level. Large scale monitoring is required to increase our knowledge on the distribution and prevalence of pyrethroid resistance in bed bug populations in Korea. Based on present study, it is urgent to restrict the use of pyrethroids and to introduce effective alternative insecticides. A nation-wide monitoring program to determine the pyrethroid resistance level in bed bugs and to select alternative insecticides should be implemented.

The global resurgence of bed bug infestations, exacerbated by increasing international travel, trade, and insecticide resistance, has significantly impacted Korea. This study identified the bed bug species and performed pyrethroid resistance genotyping of recently resurgent bed bugs in Korea. Thirty-one regional bed bug samples were collected from 5 administrative regions: Gyeonggi-do (n=14), Seoul (n=13), Busan (n=2), Jeonllanam-do (n=1), and Chungcheongbuk-do (n=1). The samples underwent morphological and molecular identification. Twenty-four regional samples (77.4%) were identified as the tropical bed bug, Cimex hemipterus, and the remaining 7 regional samples (22.6%) were identified as the common bed bug, Cimex lectularius. The C. hemipterus regional samples carried at least three mutations associated with knockdown resistance (kdr), including 2 super-kdr mutations. The 7 C. lectularius regional samples possessed at least one of the 3 kdr-related mutations associated with pyrethroid resistance. This study confirms that the prevalent bed bug species recently in Korea is C. hemipterus, replacing the previously endemic C. lectularius. Additionally, the rise in bed bug populations with pyrethroid resistance underscores the necessity of introducing alternative insecticides.

Objectives Pyrethroid pesticides are among the most commonly using insecticides in South Korean households and have been the subject of considerable interest among public health professionals for their potential health effects. The objective of this study is to examine the level of urinary 3-phenoxybenzoic acid (3-PBA) among elementary students in South Korea. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate pyrethroid pesticide exposure levels by measuring the urinary metabolites of 3-PBA using a gas chromatographymass spectrometry method in March 2011. Study participants were 70 Asan-area and Incheon-area elementary students. Results All respondents had values above the detection limit, and the geometric means of 3-PBA in all children were $1.85{\mu}g/L$ and $1.46{\mu}g/g$ creatinine. Children with the top 10% urinary levels of 3-PBA were more likely to be girls, under nine years of age, living in a rural area, and living in a residential type apartment. Conclusions South Korean children have a higher concentration of urinary 3-PBA compared with those of other countries. Further research identifying exposure pathways and intervention efforts to reduce environmental pesticide use are needed in South Korea.

Pyrethroids are extensively used as insecticide in agriculture and home. Several studies have reported that yrethroids are relatively safe to humans and wildlife. However. some studies have suggested that pyrethroids ossess estrogen-like activity. Thus. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of pyrethroid ompounds on cell proliferation. and expression of ERs and pS2 using estrogen receptor positive human breast ancer cell line (MCF-7 BUS celis).

The KOrea Insecticide Exposure Model (KOIEM) was developed to facilitate ecological risk-based management of Korean insecticides. KOIEM, applied as a multimedia fate model, evaluates water, soil, air, and vegetation compartments based on three water-body types (streams, ditches, and ponds). Deltamethrin, a pyrethroid insecticide, was used to evaluate and create the model parameters. After exposure of both the stream and the ditch to deltamethrin, the KOIEM-predicted concentrations and the observed levels were in agreement. The model was also evaluated using the accuracy factor (AF), which was 4.32 and 0.35 for the stream and ditch, respectively. Ecological risk assessment was also performed to evaluate the application of KOIEM for four popular South Korean insecticides (cypermethrin, deltamethrin, diazinon, and permethrin). Despite the insecticides having low PECs in water, their risk quotients were typically above 1.0. Thus, KOIEM modification would be required in further studies to account for spatial variation.
