Abstract
1. The treatment of clover and teazle seeds with solubilized chlorphenol has been carried out and found to be equally harmless to the seeds, as regards germination, as the ordinary solutions previously described. The mixing of the micellar solution, and its use, is described. 2. The use of chlorphenol in bulb baths for the treatment of narcissus bulbs infested with eelworm is reviewed in the light of the solubilization of chlorphenol. The strength of chlorphenol is reduced from 0.25 per cent, to 0.1 per cent., the percentage of detergent remaining at 0.25 per cent. Mixing of the solution and its use, are described. 3. Advice is given on the handling of chlorphenol. 4. Details are given of the solubilization of several benzene derivatives by means of detergents of the long-chain alkyl sulphate type.
