SOHAIL AHMED1 AND MUHAMMAD IRFANULLAH Department of Agri-Entomology, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad–38040, Pakistan 1Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The susceptibility of a laboratory reared strain of Musca domestica L. to cypermethrin 10 EC, fenpropathrin 20 EC, fenvalerate 20 EC and lambda cyhalothrin 2.5 EC, at different ranges of concentrations (250 to 2500 ppm) of the formulated insecticides in acetone alone and in combination with sesame oil in 1:1 and 1:2 ratio of insecticide: sesame oil was investigated. These concentrations in a volume of 5 mL were added to 25 g of granulated sugar in a petridish. House flies were fed on the insecticide coated sugar for 48 h. Knockdown and mortality data were recorded after 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 48 h and subjected to probit analysis. KD50 values of cypermethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, fenpropathrin and fenvalerate in 1:1 ratio with sesame oil were 4297, 17188, 2324 and 8487 ppm, respectively as compared to 1915, 15034, 2608 and 4005 ppm respectively when these insecticides were applied alone. Similar fashion was seen in context of LC50 values. The pyrethroid + sesame oil combination in two ratios does not show the synergism in M. domestica. Key Words: M. domestica; Pyrethroids; Synergist; Sesame oil INTRODUCTION conventional insecticides as well as against cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii Glover) (Moore, 2005). Sesamin, a lignan Housefly (Musca domestica L.) causes a serious threat occurring in sesame’s seed oil has been reported as synergist to human and livestock health by transmitting many insecticide, antisseptic, bactericide (Bedigian et al., 1985).

The present pro- ject addressed three aspects in a mixture risk assessment of biocidal products, which is required dur- ing the regulatory authorisation. These aspects range from direct regulatory application (component- based aquatic risk assessment of products) to more science-oriented exploratory work (indication for synergistic interactions and prediction of mixture toxicity in terrestrial organisms).

The overall objectives of the IPCS are to establish the scientific basis for assessment of the risk to human health and the environment from exposure to chemicals, through international peer review processes, as a prerequisite for the promotion of chemical safety, and to provide technical assistance in strengthening national capacities for the sound management of chemicals. This publication was developed in the IOMC context. The contents do not necessarily reflect the views or stated policies of individual IOMC Participating Organizations. The Inter-Organization Programme for the Sound Management of Chemicals (IOMC) was established in 1995 following recommendations made by the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development to strengthen cooperation and increase international coordination in the field of chemical safety. The Participating Organizations are: FAO, ILO, UNDP, UNEP, UNIDO, UNITAR, WHO, World Bank and OECD. The purpose of the IOMC is to promote coordination of the policies and activities pursued by the Participating Organizations, jointly or separately, to achieve the sound management of chemicals in relation to human health and the environment.

Khalequzzaman1* and Makhsuda Khanom2 Institute of Biological Sciences, Rajshahi University, Rajshahi 6205, Bangladesh 1Department of Zoology, University of Rajshahi, Rajshahi 6205, Bangladesh *Corresponding author; email: [email protected]; 2Present address: New Govt. Degree College, Rajshahi 6000, Bangladesh Abstract: Cypermethrin was applied either alone or in combination with leaf and seed extracts of neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) to four strains of the adult red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and the mortality was assessed after 24 and 48 hrs of treatments. The LD50 values were calculated as 0.0072, 0.0105, 0.0056 and 0.0124 µgcm−2 after 24 hours and 0.0041, 0.0076, 0.0046 and 0.0097 µgcm−2 after 48 hours of treatment for the Local, CR-1, FSS-II and CTC-12 strains respectively. The results showed synergism when applied in combined doses of cypermethrin and leaf and seed extracts with petroleum spirit, ethyl acetate and methanol. Leaf extract in acetone had an insignificant effect showing its inertness with cypermethrin excepting 24 hrs after treatment of Local strain and 48 hrs after treatment of CTC-12 strain. Seed extract in methanol in Local strain showed insignificant effect after 24 hrs of treatment but a synergistic effect occurred after 48 hrs of treatment. Key words: Cypermethrin, Azadirachta indica, Tribolium castaneum, synergism Introduction have strong pesticidal properties (Isman, 1999; Walter, 1999; Khalequzzaman & Khanom, 2000; Khanom & The intensification of food production has led to several Khalequzzaman, 2000; Mancebo et al., 2002).
