last larval instar of T. confusum. In all cases‚ considerable differences in insect mortality were shown with different plant extract‚ different concentration at the same exposure period 24 hrs. The 24 hrs bioassay is a major tool for evaluating the toxicity of phytotoxins‚ and a number of researches have been applying this method to assess the toxic effect of different plant extractions against T. confusum (Hana‚ 2013 and Kundu et al.‚ 2007). The T. confusum larvae that exposed to the plant extracts

century principle that any substance can be toxic if consumed in sufficient quantity. In a general sense‚ the toxicity of a substance could be defined as the capacity to cause injury to a living organism.

Thus‚ toxicity cannot be defined without reference to the quantity of a substance administered or absorbed‚ the way in which

When toxicity is often depicted‚ it is shown to already be a large movement that affects a wide variety of forms of life. However‚ Stephen Matheson’s film Apple Grown in Wind Tunnel: Wind Speed 85m per hour illustrates the spread of toxic practices at its beginning smaller stages in order to imply that the spread of toxicity begin in smaller stages before accelerating to much more expansive areas. The film achieves this effect by engaging in the common toxicity discourse aspects such as the us-vs-them
