Table 1. Standardised WHOPES cone test using three clothing types Factory-dipped clothing (FDC), Micro-encapsulated (MC), Factory-dipped school uniform (FDSU).

Knockdown (KD) at 3 minutes, 1 hour post exposure and mortality 24 hours post exposure were recorded and are displayed with 95% confidence intervals.

Clothing type Percentage KD, 3min (95% CI) Percentage KD, 1 hour (95% CI) Percentage Mortality, 24 hours (95% CI)
Factory-dipped clothing (FDC) 38.1 (23.2–55.5) 96.5 (94.2–97.8) 97.1 (80.9–99.6)
Micro-encapsulated (MC) 20.9 (10.5–37.2) 50.8 (37.5–62.7) * 73.3 (51.8–87.4) *
Factory-dipped school uniform(FDSU) 35.9 (24.9–48.4) 98.2 (92.1–99.6) 98.6 (80.6–99.9)

* = difference between clothing types is significant at the 0.05 level
