These experiments were conducted to investigate the nematicidal effects of the insecticides, Mocap(O-Ethyl-S, S-dipropyl phosphorodithioate), Carbofuran(2,3-Dihydro-2,2-dimethyl benzofuranyl ethyl carbamate), Terbufos (S-tert-buthylthio methyl O,O-diethyl phosphordithioate) and their mixtures (Mocap+carbofuran, Mocap+Terbufos, Carbofuran+Terbufos) on growth of 2year-old ginseng, Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, and the control of root-knot nematodes. There was no evidence of plant injury from insecticide treatment of ginseng, although the rate of emergence of the treated ginseng was slightly inhibited. The insecticide treatments showed no of-flavor of ginseng plant. Terbufos and Mocap provided heifer confrol of the root-knot nematodes than carbofuran alone and their mixtures. Mixtures of the insecticides showed antagonisitic effect to the root-knot nematodes.

The responses of brain acetylcholinesterase(Ach-E) and plasma cholinesterase (Ch-E) activities were studied in chicknes given oral doses of Terbufos(S-tert-butyl thiomethyl 0,0-diethyl phosphorodithioate), an organophosphorus insecticide. The acute oral $LD_{50}$ of terbufos was 1.82mg/kg. The activity of plasma Ch-E was inhibited more rapidly than that of brain Ach-E, whereas recovery of plasma Ch-E activity was more rapid than that of brain Ach-E. Recovery of brain Ach-E and plasma Ch-E was followed the model $Y=a+b(log_{10}X)$. Brain Ach-E activity and plasma Ch-E were inhibited 83% and 94%, respectively, at 60min after administered oral $LD_{50}$. Brain Ach-E and plasma Ch-E was inhibited in vitro by Terbufos

Growth response and acetolactate synthase(ALS) activity were examined to determine the resistance of corn cultivars to primisulfuron when primisulfuron and/ or insecticide Terbufos were applied. Pioneer 3571 IR showed resistance to primisulfuron regardless of Terbufos treatment, but Pioneer 3571 was greatly injured with primisulfuron plus Terbufos treatment. Suwon 118 was relatively tolerant to primisulfuron compared to Chalok 2, but crop injury was occurred at both cultivars by primisulfuron plus Terbufos treatment. ALS activity at Pioneer 3751 IR was very high in primisulfuron and/ or Terbufos treatment. Suwon 118 also showed higher ALS activity compared to Pioneer 3751 and Chalok 2, but ALS activities were greatly decreased by primisulfuron plus Terbufos treatment at Suwon 118 and Chalok 2. The $I_{50}$ concentration for 50% inhibition of the ALS enzyme was 10.0, 0.06, 7.75, and 0.04${\mu}M$ for Pioneer 3751 IR, Pioneer 3751, Suwon 118, and Chalok 2, respectively. Consequently, resistance of corn cultivars to primisulfuron was significantly related to ALS activity. Crop injury and lower ALS activity were recognized in susceptible corn cultivars by primisulfuron plus Terbufos treatment.

An organophosphate pesticide terbufos (S-t-butylthiomethyl-O.O-diethyl phosphorodithioate; TBF) has been extensively used as an insecticide. A sexual dimorphism in TBF toxicity was not reported and remains unclear. Objective of the work is to investigate the influence of TBF on sexual dimorphism in rats by using acethlcholinesterase (AchE). (omitted)

A sexual dimorphism in terbufos (S-t-butylthiomethyl-O,O-diethyl phosphorodithioate: TBF) toxicity was not reported and remains unclear. Previously. we reported that TBF treatment showed sexual dimorphic effects on acetylcholinesterase (AchE) activity. We further investigated that sexual dimorphism of TBF was affected to age and brain-regional selectivity, and whether ovary plays an important role in the effect. (omitted)

Purpose: Extremely hazardous pesticides are classified as World Health Organization (WHO) hazard class Ia. However, data describing the clinical course of WHO class Ia OP (organophosphate) poisonings in humans are very scarce. Here, we compare the clinical features of patients who ingested hazard class Ia OPs. Methods: This retrospective observational case study included 75 patients with a history of ingesting ethyl p-nitrophenol thio-benzene phosphonate (EPN), phosphamidon, or terbufos. The patients were divided according to the chemical formulation of the ingested OP. Data regarding mortality and the development of complications were collected and compared among groups. Results: There were no differences in the baseline characteristics and severity scores at presentation between the three groups. No fatalities were observed in the terbufos group. The fatality rates in the EPN and phosphamidon groups were 11.8% and 28.6%, respectively. Patients poisoned with EPN developed respiratory failure later than those poisoned with phosphamidon and also tended to require longer mechanical ventilatory support than phosphamidon patients. The main cause of death was pneumonia in the EPN group and hypotensive shock in the phosphamidon group. Death occurred later in the EPN group than in the phosphamidon group. Conclusion: Even though all three drugs are classified as WHO class Ia OPs (extremely hazardous pesticides), their clinical courses and the related causes of death in humans varied. Their treatment protocols and predicted outcomes should therefore also be different based on the chemical formulation of the OP.

Control effects of some insecticides were evaluated against the stone leek leafminer, Liriomyra chinensis Kato (Diptera： Agromyzidae) with the some different treatment methods. Insecticidal activities effects were estimated on the different development stages of the insects on welsh onion. The insecticides that controlled L. chinensis eggs with over 83％ efficacy were spinosad, dimethoate, emamectin, and cartap. The insecticides that showed over 87％ of larvicidal activity were dimethoate and cartap. Dimethoate showed 93.3％ insecticide residual activity for 3 days a(ter treatment as a foliar spray. For control of pupae, the insecticides that showed over 88％ of contact insecticidal activity were terbufos GR and cartap GR. Both dimethoate and cartap had high adulticidal activity with over 95％ control efficacy.

The responses of brain acetylcholinesterase and plasma cholinesterase activities were examined in chicken given oral doses of an organophosphorus insecticides. Acute oral $LD_{50}$ of terbufos was 1.82mg/kg, and terbufos sulfone was 2.85mg/kg, terbufos sulfoxide, terbufoso xon, terbufosoxon sulfone and terbufosoxon sulfoxide were about $0.30{\sim}0.79mg/kg$, respectively. Acute oral $LD_{50}$ of phorate was 1.02mg/kg, and phorate sulfone was 1.73mg/kg, phorate sulfoxide, phoratoxon, phoratoxon sulfoxide and phoratoxon sulfone were about $0.36{\sim}0.63mg/kg$, respectively. Dosages of 50% inhibition for brain AChE and plasma ChE activities in chicken at 60 mins after oral administration of organop hosphorus insecticides were $35.3{\pm}6.8%\;and\;17.4{\pm}3.6%$ of acute oral $LD_{50}$, respectively. Activities of brain AChE and plasma ChE in chicken at 60 mins after oral administratration of acute oral $LD_{50}$ of organophosphorus insecticides were inhibited by $83.7{\pm}3.9%\;and\;93.3{\pm}2.2%$, respectively.
