BHC Residues in Brown Rice Produced in Korea

한국산 현미(玄米)중 BHC의 잔류성(殘留性) 연구(硏究)

Residue levels of an organochlorine insecticide, BHC, were determined for brown rice samples produced in Korea by collection and field experiments to obtain the following results. 1) Residue levels of total BHC in 112 samples (an Indica type variety Tongil) produced in 1976 and collected from 9 provinces in proportion to the production level of rice ranged from 0.0010 to 0.0762 ppm, the average being 0.0061 ppm. 2) The residue levels in samples from Jeonbook, Kyongnam and Choongnam provinces were higher than the average for whole samples. BHC isomers were found in the order of ${\alpha}>{\gamma}>{\beta}>{\delta}$ isomers, and the detection frequency by range were 89.3% below 0.01 ppm, 9.8% for $0.01{\sim}0.05{\;}ppm$ and 0.9% for $0.05{\sim}0.10{\;}ppm$. 3) In field experiments according to conventional agronomical practices, the brown rice samples after spraying of BHC at the first generation time of rice stem borer (4 kg of 6% granular formulation/10 a paddy field) showed a little higher residue level than control samples, but not more than 0.035 ppm, whereas samples after spraying at the second generation time (3 kg/10 a) contained in the range of $0.04{\sim}0.19\;ppm$.

한국산 현미(玄米)중 유기염소계(有機鹽素系)살충제인 BHC의 잔류량(殘留量)을 파악하기 위하여 전국각지에서 수집(蒐集)한 현미시료와 포장(圃場)실험에 의한 시료중 BHC 잔류량을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 각도별(各道別) 미곡생산량에 비례하여 수집한 1976년산 통일계통 현미시료 112점에 대한 총 BHC 잔류량 평균치(平均値)는 0.0061 ppm, 검출범위(檢出範圍)는 $0.0010{\sim}0.0762ppm$이었다. 2) 산지별(産地別)로는 전북(全北), 경남(慶南), 충남산(忠南産)이 전국평균치(全國平均値)보다 많았고 이성체별(異性體別)로는 ${\alpha}>{\gamma}>{\beta}>{\delta}$의 순으로 검출되었으며 농도별(濃度別) 검출빈도(檢出頻度)는 0.01 ppm 이하 89.3%, $0.01{\sim}0.05\;ppm$ 9.8%, $0.05{\sim}0.10\;ppm$ 0.9%이었다. 3) 관행법(慣行法)에 의한 수도(水稻)재배중 살포한 BHC의 잔류량을 경기(京畿)지역과 전북(全北)지역에서 시험한 결과 이화명충 1화기에 살포(BHC 6% 입제(粒劑) 4 kg/10 a)한 경우의 현미에서는 무처리구보다 약간 증가하였으나 0.035 ppm을 초과하지는 아니하였다. 한편 이화명충 2화기에 살포(6% 입제(粒劑) 3 kg/10 a)한 경우의 현미에서는 $0.04{\sim}0.19\;ppm$ 범위로 잔류(殘留)하였다.
