| Fiducial Limits | Median | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Virus | LC50a (OBs/mL) | Lower Limit | Upper Limit | Slope | LT50ab (hr p.i.) | 95% CL | % Mortality |
| ChinNPV#1 | 1.71 × 105 a | 9.97 × 104 | 2.90 × 105 | 1.8 ± 0.3 | 166.9 a | 164.5–169.3 | 76.7 |

a Values with different letters are significantly different at p < 0.05; b Median lethal time of insects infected was determined by the Kaplan–Meier estimator and reported with 95% confidence limits. hr p. i., hours post infection.
