Toxicity

PRETREATMENT OF MICE WITH AN ORAL 2 G/KG DOSE MONOMETHYLOLUREA REDUCED THE LD50 FOR FORMALDEHYDE FROM 330 TO 293 MG/KG.

Drug Information

THE TICKS (BOOPHILUS MICROPLUS) WERE INJECTED WITH A DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE SOLN CONTAINING 1-(14)C-CARBARYL (0.5 TO 0.7 MCG) OR CARBONYL-(14)C-CARBARYL (0.2 MCG) IN 1- TO 3-MCL DOSES. TLC AUTORADIOGRAMS OF THE ACETONE EXTRACT TREATED WITH AMMONIA REVEALED THE PRESENCE OF N-HYDROXYMETHYLUREA.
