A consideration of inter-species variability in the use of the median lethal dose (LD50) in avian risk assessment / A. Baril ... [et al.].: CW69-5/216E-PDF
"Avian risk assessment of pesticides depends for the most part on two laboratory-derived measures of lethality. First, the median lethal dose (LD50) , a statistically derived single oral dose of a compound which will cause 50% mortality of the test population. Second, the median lethal concentration (LC50) which similarly derives the concentration of a substance in the diet which is expected to lead to 50% mortality of the test population"--Introd.
