The Toxicity of Paraquat
AUTOR(ES)
Clark, D. G.
RESUMO
Samples of paraquat dichloride and paraquat dimethosulphate are equitoxic when the LD50 is expressed as mg. paraquat ion/kg. body-weight. There are wide species variations in the LD50 and, of course, variations according to the route of administration in a single species.
