Popis: Background information is presented on the development of specifications for 75% DDT water-dispersible powder for use in malaria control programmes supported by the International Cooperation Administration (ICA) of the United States Government. Early difficulties with DDT powders used in these programmes were investigated and it was found that the most critical requirements involved packaging, suspensibility and storage stability. ICA specifications were evolved to meet these requirements. The suspensibility test developed is described, and the importance of inspection of the material procured is discussed.
