Chlorpyrifos 유제 살포액 조제 시 작업자의 손 노출량 측정하였으며, 위해성 평가를 실시하였다. 분석기기상의 검출한계는 0.25 ng, 정량한계는 1 ng로 설정하였고, 표준 검량선의 직선성과 분석재현성은 우수하였다. 장갑의 회수율은 72.3-103.4% 이었다. 살포액 조제 시 평균 손 노출은 3.9 mg이었으며, 조제 약량 대비 0.004%이었다. 위해성평가를 하기 위하여 한국 평균 남자 체중, 농작업자노출허용량(AOEL, acceptable operator exposure level) 손 노출량을 비교하였다. 또한 하루 조제 횟수는 8회로 가정하였고, 가장 많이 노출되는 최악의 경우를 확인하기 위하여 30 반복 손 노출량의 75 percentile에 해당하는 노출량(4.6 mg)을 이용하여 위해성 평가 결과 위해성이 낮은 것으로 판단되었으나, 30반복 각각의 위해성 평가 결과 2회는 노출량보다 허용량보다 많아서 위해성이 예상되었다.
Exposure and risk assessment during mixing/loading of chlorpyrifos emulsifiable concentrate (EC, 20%) were carried out. Limit of detection and limit of quantitation were 0.02 and 0.1 ng, respectively. Calibration curve linearity and reproducibility were excellent. Recovery of chlorpyrifos from gloves was 72.3-103.4%. During mixing/loading procedure, average hand exposure amount of chlorpyrifos was 3.9 mg which is corresponding to 0.004% of total active ingredient in the prepared spray mixture. In calculation of MOS (Margin of Safety) for risk assessment, male Korean average body weight and AOEL (Acceptable Operator Exposure Level) were used. Nine events of mixing/loading procedure were assumed per day. And 75 percentile of 30 repetition (4.6 mg) was used as for the worst case. MOS was more than 1 for total repetition, indicating mixing/loading work was of least risk. However, MOS of individual repetition was examined, two cases were less than 1 suggesting careful work habit is essential in mixing/loading procedure.
