| Popis: | The onset of toxic symptoms of photoaldrin and photodieldrin is 3–5 times faster than aldrin and dieldrin in crayfish, bluegills and minnows and 1.3–2.2 times in other animals. Photoisodrin is 3–5 times slower than isodrin in its toxic action against other animals tested. The increased toxicity of photoaldrin and photodieldrin is apparently related to the rate ofin vivo formation of more toxic ketones as observed with photodieldrin. |
