Substituted nitrosalicylanilides: a new class of selectively toxic sea lamprey larvicides

Structure activity relationships of substituted 3-nitro- and 5-nitro-salicylanilides and related compounds have been evaluated to elucidate their activity as potent selectively toxic sea lamprey larvicides.

The relation between molecular structure and biological activity among mononitrophenols containing halogens

The results of tests of the biological activity of certain nitrophenols containing halogen are reported. Some of these are shown to be significantly more toxic to larvae of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus L.) than to fishes. It is proposed that the death of lamprey larvae exposed to these compounds results from an acute hypotension (shock) with concomitant circulatory and respiratory failure.
