- Title
THE GROWTH IN VITRO OF MICRO-ORGANISMS IN THE PRESENCE OF SUBSTITUTED PHENOXYACETIC AND PHENOXYBUTYRIC ACIDS.

- Abstract
The growth has been tested <em>in vitro</em> of selected species of fungi, yeasts, bacteria, actinomycetes and green algae in the presence of the acetic and γ-butyric acid forms of MCPA, 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T. The results show that at concentrations approximating to field rates of application, these chemicals were harmless. At much higher concentrations (above 500 ppm), however, the γ-butyric acids were found to be highly toxic whereas the acetic acids has no effect on growth.
