There are a large number of statistical procedures published to test for constancy of variance ( 28-30 ). The Hartley Test was chosen for this task because of its simplicity ( ). Selected critical values for the H statistic at a =0.05 are shown in Table IV for reference purposes. 

For fenvalerate the minimum H statistic was found to be at a transformation power of 0.15. The power range of 0.15 to 0.10 gave an H statistic less than or equal to the critical H value.

In a robustness test the following steps can be identified (a) identification of the variables to be tested, (b) definition of the different levels for the variables, (c) selection of the experimental design, (d) definition of the experimental protocol, (e) definition of the responses to be determined, (f) execution of the experiments and determination of the responses of the method, (g) calculation of effects, (h) statistical and/or graphical analysis of the effects, and (i) drawing chemically relevant conclusions from the statistical analysis and, if necessary, taking measures to improve the performance of the method. A general overview of robustness testing can be found in [35).
