Vegetable oils as protectants against nematode infections.

In this experiment, 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 ml of each oil dissolved in 1 ml of 95 % ethanol was added to 1 kg of soil containing 370 P. penetrans per kg, and incorporated by shaking.

Bonny Best) seedling was planted in each of six 5-cm-diam plastic pots containing 100 g of treated or untreated infested soi...

The Determination of Stigmastadienes in Vegetable Oils

The development by collaborative study of a standardised method for the determination of the stigmastadienes content in vegetable oils is described. The procedure involves the isolation of the unsaponifiable matter in the oil ands its fractioning on a silica gel column. The fraction containing the steroidal hydrocarbons is then analysed by capillary gas chromatography and the quantitative asses...
