| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research was to develop an analytical method of neonicotinoid insecticides influence river ecosystems, and to present a new method of evaluating their toxicity to aquatic insects.The installation period and temperature were set in order to facilitate passive sampling. Passive sampling is a research method receiving increasing attention as a way to monitor relatively long-term changes in pesticide concentrations in river water, particularly for neonicotinoid insecticides that have an extremely high solubility and whose adsorption coefficient depends on the adsorbent resin.
To evaluate the effects of the insecticides on aquatic insects, species compositions were analyzed with artificial bases (blocks) installed on the riverbed, and video analysis was used to estimate the distance travelled per unit time (speed) by aquatic insect larva.
