Effects of Eight Brighteners as Solar Radiation Protectants for Steinernema carpocapsae, All Strain

Seven commercially available Blankophor fluorescent brighteners were compared with the standard Tinopal LPW as solar radiation protectants for Steinernema carpocapsae (All strain). Blankophor BBH and Tinopal LPW were the most successful UV screens, with 95% of the original nematode infectivity to la...
