a

Data were an average of ≥3 experiments.

b

Data were an average of ≥2 experiments.

c

Data were an average of outcomes from two separate lots of compound 2.

d

Data were obtained from a 3-day exposure experiment versus 5-day duration due to precipitation of compound after 3 days.

NT = not tested; NA = not applicable. Data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2010.
