Technical report series ; no. 216 Digitized edition from print [produced by Environment and Climate Change Canada]. Includes bibliographical references (p. 10-12). "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.
