Extract

The great increase, in recent years, in the number of contact insecticides has created a demand for methods whereby the content of active substance in samples of these insecticides may be estimated quantitatively in a simple manner. Such methods are important, because on the one hand the producer wishes to know if his product meets the necessary requirements and on the other hand the official services concerned with the control of insect pests must be able to test the fundamental value of commercial preparations. Moreover quantitative methods for the estimation of contact insecticides are useful for scientific research in this field.
