Data are reported as the mean ± S.E.M. Differences with a * value 0.05 were considered significant relative to the 0.1% DMSO group.
a is the concentration required to give 50% mortality, calculated by linear regression analysis from the Kc values at the concentrations employed.
NA: the compound is not active.
