Abstract
Field experiments were conducted at two places in Tamil Nadu (India) to determine the residues of bifenthrin in black tea. Residues were quantified at different harvest intervals of ‘0’ (3 hr), 1 st , 3 rd , 5 th , 7 th , 10 th and 14 th day after acaricide application. Persistence, dissipation pattern, half-life value and safe harvest interval of the acaricide in tea were calculated. Residues of bifenthrin dissipated exponentially after application at both the locations and reached below the European Union maximum residue limit (MRL) of 5 mg kg-1 on the 10th day. Bifenthrin showed that like other acaricides it followed the first order dissipation kinetics. Half-life values varied from 2.4 to 3.2 days for bifenthrin and a safe harvest interval of 10 days is suggested for tea at the recommended dosage.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Tea Science was established in August 1964, approved by the Publicity Department, CCCPC. Its title was inscribed by Zhu De, the chairman of CCCPC. It was discontinued during the Cultural Revolution in 1966, and it was reissued in August 1984, approved by the State Scientific and Technological Commission.Academicians Chen Zongmao and Liu Zhonghuaof the Chinese Academy of Engineering served as the directors of the editorial board. The Journal of Tea Science is managed by the China Association for Science and Technology,sponsored by the China Tea Science Society and the Tea Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and edited and published by the editorial office of the Journal of Tea Science. It is the only one of Chinese core journals in the field of tea science that is included in the core library of the Chinese Science Citation Database.Its Domestic Unified Serial Number is CN 33-1115/S, its International Standard Serial Number is ISSN 1000-369X and its International publication name code is CODEN-CHKEF4. At present, the Journal of Tea Science is a bimonthly publication, published in the middle of the month, with a book size of 16.
