담배거세미나방(Spodoptera litura)에서 [$^{14}C$] 표지된 N-acetyl glucosamine, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine을 이용하여 신규살충제 DBI-1015와 DBI-3204의 살충 mechanism을 조사하였다. 담배거세미나방의 표피에 incorporation 되어진 방사논의 양은 신규살충제의 농도에 따라 함수관계를 나타내었다 In vivo실험에서 [$^{14}C$] N-ncetylslucosamine에 대한 DBI-1015, DBI-3204와 diflubenzuron의 $I_{50}$ (ppm)값은 각각 0.57, 0.89, 0.26 ppm을 나타내었으며, [$^{14}C$] UDP-N-acetylglucosamine의 $I_{50}$ (ppm)값은 각각 0.99, 0.53, 0.45 ppm을 나타내었다. 표피절편을 이용한 in vitro 실험에서 표피에 incorporation된 [$^{14}C$] N-acetylglucosamine과 [$^{14}C$] UDP-N-acetylglucosamine의 양은 적었지만, $2{mu}M$ 농도에서 무처리구에 비해 $40{sim}60%$ 억제되었다.
This study was conducted to investigate insecticidal mechanisms of the new insecticides DBI-1015 and DBI-3204 with label compounds of chitin precursors, [$^{14}C$] N-acetylglucosamine and [$^{14}C$] UDP-N-acetylglucosamine in Spodoptera litura. The concentrations of the insecticides for incorporation of chitin precursors into chitin were founded to be functional relationship. The result of in vivo test, $I_{50}$ (ppm) of the DBI-1015, DBI-3024 and diflubenzuron to [$^{14}C$] N-acetylglucosamine were 0.57, 0.89 and 0.26 ppm respectively, and to [$^{14}C$] UDP-N-acetylglucosaminen were 0.99, 0.53 and 0.45 ppm respectively. in vitro test of DBI-1015, DBI-3024 and diflubenzuron by integument fragments, the incorporation rate in the cuticle were low, however, $40{sim}60%$ inhibitions were observed at $2{mu}M$ when compared to the untreated control.
