미생물제(Sphingobium sp. Cam5-1) 처리에 따른 토양 중 카두사포스의 분해효과 = Enhanced Degradation of Residual Cadusafos in Soils by the Microbial Agent of Cadusafos-degrading Sphingobium sp. Cam5-1

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Cadusafos, an organophosphorus insecticide, has been commonly used against various pests worldwide. Organophosphorus pesticides have shorter half-lives and lower toxicities than organochlorine pesticides. However, excessive use of Cadusafos can increase pest resistance and issues with acetylcholine biomagnification, potentially resulting in human toxicity. In this study, we investigated the effect of a Cadusafos-degrading microbial agent (CDMA) prepared using Sphingobium sp. Cam5-1, which was previously reported to effectively degrade residual Cadusafos in soil. Experiments were conducted under both controlled laboratory and greenhouse field conditions. Under laboratory conditions, CDMA (10⁶ cfu/g soil application rate) decomposed 97% of Cadusafos in the soil in the untreated control after 21 days. Additionally, when CDMA (10⁶ cfu/g soil) was mixed with quicklime, 99% of Cadusafos was decomposed within 3 days. Under greenhouse field conditions, the combined effect of CDMA (10⁶ cfu/g soil) and quicklime was not observed. However, CDMA (10⁶ cfu/g soil) application alone was capable of decompos- ing 91% of Cadusafos after 3 days. These results indicate that CDMA can effectively decompose high residual levels of Cadusafos in soils under field conditions using a low inoculum rate.
