The acute toxicity of larval lampricide (TFM: 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol) to 35 species of benthic macroinvertebrates was determined in 96-h flow-through tests. The 96-h LC50 values range from 2.1 mg/liter for blackfly larvae, Simulium pugetense, to values in excess of 38.0 mg/liter for species with heavy exoskeletons: crayfish (Orconectes propinquus), dobsonfly larvae (Chauloides sp), and dragonfly naiads (Ophiogomphus sp.) Younger individuals of the clam (Ligumia sp.) and the mayfly nymph (Ephemerella cornuta) were 2 to 1.5 times more sensitive than larger individuals of the same species. Early emergence of adults and increased locomotor activity were observed among some organisms exposed to sublethal concentrations.

SummaryUbiquin (oligo-3-(N-methylmorpholinium)-l,2-propylene oxide chloride) is a stable, water soluble, active heparin antagonist producing prompt neutralization when administered in a 1:1 ratio to rats and dogs. Initial studies indicate that it is devoid of any effect on coagulation per se; nor are there any obvious side effects manifested during the process of neutralization. The acute toxicity is less than that of other compounds in use: toluidine blue, protamine and hexadimethrine.
