Ma. Azmi et al., TOXICOLOGICAL STUDIES OF SOLFAC AND NEEM FORMULATION AGAINST SITOPHILUS-ORYZAGE, National Academy Science Letters, 16(5-6), 1993, pp. 187-190
In the present work the toxicity of Solfac which contains 10% cyfluthr
in as an active ingredient and RB-b which is a crude neem extact of ri
pe berries of neem were determined against rice weevil Sitophilus oryz
ae. The LD50 was found to be o.565 mug/cm2 for Solfac and 16.34 mug/cm
2 for RB-b after 24 hours of treatment. The RB-b was applied as a form
ulation containing a synergist, piperonyl butoxide.
