Excerpt from Laboratory Studies on the Toxicity of Tartar Emetic to the Mexican FruitflyFour experiments on the toxicity of concentrations of tartar emetic ranging from to 8 pounds in 100 gallons of solution containing 20 pounds of granulated sugar showed that decrease in the length of life of ¿ies was not very great as the concentration was gradually increased from 2 to 6 or 8 pounds of tartar emetic. Flies succumbed less rapidly upon exposure to a concentration of 1 pound, and toxicity fell off markedly when ¿ies were exposed to concentrations of less than 1 pound.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
