The Japan Kampo Medicines Manufacturers Association set up self-imposed limits of residual pesticides for Kampo products (organochlorine, organophosphorus and pyrethroid) and conventional crude drug products(organochlorine) in June 2005, and additional limits on organophosphorus and pyrethroid insecticides in conventional crude drug products were set in June 2006. As reported in previous papers, we have been continuously surveying the actual implementation of these self-regulations of residual pesticides by member companies since 2005, and this report deals with our survey result from August 2009. From April 2008 to March 2009, 82.5% of the member companies implemented pesticide tests on the basis of self-regulation, and at least 13,844 samples were tested (Table 10 and 11). As a result, the implementation rate has improved compared to the previous survey. On the other hand, several pesticides and herbal medicines outside of self-regulations were detected, as shown in Table 13 and 14; however, by comparison of the number of detections and various criteria, no results have indicated an increase in risk level.
