Toxicity of Orthodichlorobenzene, Trichlorobenzene, and 6 Chloro, 4 Nitrotoluene to Reticulitermes Flavipes Kollar
Abstract
In 1934 M. Randall, W. B. Herms, and T. C. Doody devised a standard toxicity test for the determination of the relative effectiveness of various chemical agents in the prevention of termite damage. Such a test had the practical advantage of being small and limited to a rather short period of time, and could, therefore, be profitably used as an effective guide for later long term field tests. In their experiments, however, they confined themselves to inorganic chemicals. It was decided to repeat their methods for a series of organic chemicals to determine the relative effectiveness of these agents.
