The data used are given in Table I. The elimination rate constants included were determined at 20° C. (5). The toxicity to mosquito larvae, given as median lethal dosages (concentration in parts per million of water required to cause 50% mortality in 48 hours), was estimated from the data of Deonier et al. (9) and is probably reproducible to within 30%. 

Median Lethal Dosage (LD50) The lethal dose of a poison, when taken orally or absorbed through the skin, which is lethal to 50 percent of the exposed laboratory animal population. 

Median Lethal Dosage (mg-min/m3) 3,000-5,000 by inhalation 100,000 by skin exposure.

Latent heat of vaporization. 60cal/g Rate of hydrolysis. Not readily hydrolyzed under usual field con ditons however, rain destroys its effectiveness. Heavy vegetation, jungle, and forests cause considerable loss of CG by hydrolysis on leaf surfaces Median lethal dosage. 3200mg-min/m ... 

Following inhalation of sarin, the median lethal dosage (LCt5o) in humans has been estimated to be 70mgminm at a respiratory minute volume (RMV) of 15lmin, lOOmgminm at an RMV of lOlmin (resting) for a duration of 0.5-2 min. 

B. LCt50. The LCt (lethal concentration timejso is the Ct which will kill 50% of the exposed population. Also defined as the median lethal dosage of a chemical agent vapor or aerosol.
