Probit analysis of concentration–mortality responses of Plodia interpunctella adults exposed to various concentrations of methyl benzoate (MBe) and ethyl formate.
| Treatment | LC50
(μL/L air) |
95% CI (Lower–Upper) |
Slope (SEM) | X2 (df) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Methyl benzoate | 0.1 | - | 1.8 (0.23) | 12.16 (2) |
| Ethyl formate | 3.2 | (2.1–3.7) | 10.4 (1.87) | 4.98 (2) |
CI = confidence interval; df = degrees of freedom; LC50 values were calculated by using the 4-h mortality data.
