Abstract

Imidacloprid is a synthetic chemical compound used as an insecticide product. Despite the benefits that insecticides provided in controlling plant pests and increasing crop yields, the use of insecticides was associated with side effects in humans The purpose of this study was to evaluate the active ingredient of imidacloprid 200 g/l in an insecticide formulation to ensure the safety of the pesticide for the applicator. This study was conducted based on appropriate toxicological tests and assessment based on pre-clinical tests in the form of evaluation of irritation and sensitization. The method used was descriptive quantitative based on the OECD 404, 405, and 406 guidelines for albino New Zealand rabbits and adult Dunkin Hartley albino guinea pigs. The results showed that the imidacloprid compound did not cause irritation symptoms in the eyes (cornea, iris, conjunctiva, and chemosis) and skin (erythema and edema) with a score of zero (0). In addition, the results of the sensitization test at a concentration of 12.5 - 100% did not show the formation of erythema which was indicated by a score of zero (0). In conclusion, imidacloprid 200 g/l did not caused irritation and sensitivity reactions in test animals so this compound is safe to use as an insecticide.

Abstract

Whiteflies Aleurodicus dispersus and Bemisia tabaci are major pest on several horticultural crops because of their feeding activity which absorbs fluids through the phloem. They are also Geminivirus vectors. Whiteflies reduce yield crop around 30%-100% on high attack. Whiteflies have morphological variety that affect feeding and reproduction behaviour in certain host plant. Identification was carried out on the puparium shape because of phenotype variations depend on the physical character of the leaf surface. This research aimed to study differences the morphology of whiteflies puparium in several plants and to create an identification key in PDF format. This research used the literature study method from textbooks and published national and international journal. The samples were taken from Bandung Regency and West Bandung Regency, West Java on tomatoes, chayote, peanuts, and beans. Then puparium was prepared in a microscope slides-mounted and morphological identification was carried out. The result obtained are subdorsum of A. dispersus has compound pores and thorax without tracheal comb. Lingula is very long, usually extending past the vasiform orifice and has two pairs of setae at the end. While the puparium of B. tabaci has lobe-shaped lingula and usually short not extending past vasiform orifice. Puparium has caudal furrow and a pair of caudal setae at the end. Subdorsum without compound pores and submarginal row of papillae absent. The result of puparium observation was photographed and used for making identification key in PDF format. Other literature study on the biological character and the whiteflies control technique are carried out to support comprehensive information for making the identification key. This identification key in PDF format can be used as a tool to identify A. dispersus and B. tabaci.
