FIELD TRIALS OF MOLLUSCICIDE (WL 8008) IN BILHARZIASIS CONTROL PROJECT AREA, IN IRAN

Field trials of molluscicide WL8008 (N-tritylmorpholine) were carried out in Khuzestan, Iran. The liquid 2 (FX/28), a 16.5 w/v emulsifiable concentrate in tetrachloroethylene in concentrations of 0.25 ppm and 0.5 ppm was used against Bulinus truncatus and Lymnaea gedrosiana in standing and running w...

description Field trials of molluscicide WL8008 (N-tritylmorpholine) were carried out in Khuzestan, Iran. The liquid 2 (FX/28), a 16.5 w/v emulsifiable concentrate in tetrachloroethylene in concentrations of 0.25 ppm and 0.5 ppm was used against Bulinus truncatus and Lymnaea gedrosiana in standing and running water systems . Bio-assay tests and laboratory experiments were made parallel to the field trials. Only a few of the B.truncatus were affected by 0.25 ppm of N-tritylmorpholine, but L.gedrosiana proved to be more susceptible to the chemical and an almost complete kill of L.gedrosiana was achieved. A concentration of 0.5 ppm completely killed both B.truncatus and L.gedrosiana, but had no effect on egg-masses. N-trityl-morpholine may play an important part in future snail control projects, particularly on Lymnaea snails.
